Sterilization

I graduated from high school in 1975 (36 years ago).  The school I attended was located in a rural area of Peoria County.  Most of the students in the school were from families in which at least one of the parents worked in a blue collar job, such as manufacturing or the building trades.  I came from one of those families.  While I was growing up, my dad was a carpenter.  Although he eventually ended up owning his own construction company, he always remained a member of the Carpenters’ Union.
