Barbara and everyone,

I did not suggest kids bring laptops. I was simply making everyone aware of
a change at PBC. I was more assuming parents would take advantage it, if and
when they dock sit. I always state to the kids if you don't want it stolen,
missplaced or broken...don't bring it. That goes for taking anything you
own...anywhere.
