How It Started...
It began September 1, 2005, in a family meeting when my high school-aged boys pointed out that language used on the sports fields and at school was often vulgar and degrading. After some discussion we coined the phrase "clean mouth and clean mind" and decided that we would form our own little club in which we agreed to try to live by the concept of "clean mouth and clean mind." We called it CM/CM. Moments later my wife suggested we simplify it to the algebraic expression, (CM)². We had some black t-shirts printed with (CM)² on the front and back of the shirt. After just a few days a number of their friends inquired about the meaning of (CM)² and they too wanted in the club. Some of the parents, when they found out what (CM)² was about, also asked for shirts as reminders for themselves.

Where it is going?
We really don't know just how far it will spread. Maybe it will reach clear around the world. Kind of makes you wonder if the world might be a little bit better place if more people agreed to "live by the code."
