Hi Hayseed,
I'm a "real" hayseed -- I live in Tennessee (but I used to work on two farms in Maryland). You might say I had hayseeds fallin' outa my pocket when country wasn't cool
I used the word "decides." I have a feeling that since our Editor here found that Google gives 16,400 for "decides" that the majority rules
Thanks for your reply!
Sandra
