I agree. Doesn't Vermont also protect its Cheddar Cheese fervently? I
went to UVM briefly, from here, and have always admired Vermonters. I
even suggested we ought to mention Vermont to our State Legislature
because of its "Made in Vermont" label. In Hawaii, our "Made in
Hawaii" means at least 50% of it, maybe even less- can't remember, has
to be made in Hawaii. Groan.

Thank you for all that have helped us, so kindly. It is one of our
last chances.
