I already got my notice in the mail. I'm just waiting for warm, dry weather. I don't want that big truck driving on my lawn w/all this snow, rain and muck.
    I'm in the boonies, and we don't have any laws around here to that effect. I have double the required leech field, so that may be why I've never had any problems. I know that with all the environmental issues anymore, all new construction requires a mound system, rather than the buried tank system. And they are VERY expensive so I hear - and an eyesore IMO! Of course in town, no septic tanks allowed, you have to be on the town's system.

    Same here, over sized system. No problems for 24 years. WE are a little careful with the TP. I have met people that could be snobs, but they are not, just down to earth folks. People like Trump or Ted Branson’s mother, Burt Ratan. What you see in the news is not always what the person is like. If you insist on designer labels or the highest price thing then in my book you are a snob and I have no use for you. The highest price does not always mean quality. Yes most store brands are made by a name company. I repaired lableing machines for a time. There might be 3 or more differant names comming out of the same machine.

    To me, the definition of a snob is what Ellie described: a person who looks down on others if they don't have designer label clothes, furniture, jewelry, etc. That's high school stuff and I refuse to give my energy to such nonsense. Being brand loyal because you really like the product is totally different in my eyes.
    Blessings,
