I wish you had gotten a hold of us earlier. My dad works for Goodwill Industries, which is primarily an organization to help rehabilitate mentally and physically disabled persons and help them into the work force. I will ask my dad about "The Idiots", as i am sure he will have comments about it if he has heard of/seen it. i will post ehre after i find out what he has to say.

Catti"need to talk to him, anyhow...bad daughter!"brie
