clean-up effort. They don't like having to wash out their underpants and get their hands dirty! If they have to clean up after themselves (supervised of course), then they will learn to pay closer attention to the urge.

How many participate in local AAMT
I'm must wondering how many of us participate in local AAMT chapters. I know that many on this board have no respect for this association - and I do not participate because of my work schedule - but I have a friend who is very active in our local association - although as an MT, well, she really lacks the ability to transcribe (I found that out when I had to do her QA - and then she was let go). I just wonder, too, why she is so active when she doesn't have the skills to work as an MT and does not work as an MT. Maybe she just likes to organize things. ????

I got a written certification to participate in swimming
class for senior center but guess what, no breast exam or gyn exam that went along with that. Where does it say breast or gyn exam here? Don�t believe this story.

I got the cool T-shirt! Thank you, Sheri. It was a pleasure to participate. SM

I commend you on making the world a better place!
