I found this on the enternet just now. If anyone lives in Cuyahoga County or close to it (I have no idea where it is in Ohio, i live in California). Anyway, it looks as if someone is hosting a meeting to dispel the Myths of rats at a local library. I cant find to much more info. The only thing that the page really has on it is two cute pics and a link to registration for the meeting/event. So, i thought I'd post it here so that anyone in the area can register an attend. Below is the info. (link at bottom)
