            Only if we can get enough hubbers who want to change light bulbs. There must be a quorum and a vote and well, I think it would have to be a certain number before the AFL-CIO would even consider a charter.

            We may have to start a whole thread about that next.

            Such a can of worms Pani has opened. big_smile
