What I get from all this? Avoid Texas! I'd have to gag on the

" immunization " crap.

Learn from the mistakes of others. Trust me... you can't live long enough

I would be very curious to know how they found out about you if you opted out,

At any rate, sounds as if you set him straight. I wonder how long it will be

before they pester you again, though.
