3Switches 1Light with a Latching 555 Switch

The Examples in this app suggest trying to make a 4-way switch. This is my attempt. Note: I wanted the Power Supply to be from the HydroElectric Power Company that supplies me, but to jump it up from the dam to the 100+kV long distance towers took up too much space in the app, so I had to settle for my nearest transfer station, which supplies my area with 7kV on one line, and uses a Center-Tapped Transformer to provide residences with 2 120V lines (0° and 180° phases) bonding the Neutral and Ground at each building's main breaker box. So, the switch above the Power Supply replicates a broken roadside power line. The switches right at the Center-Tapped Transformer replicate the breakers in my main panel. The switch above the 12:1 transformer replicates an on/off switch for the 555 switch controller. Maybe it would look like a thermostat wall control box to cut power to the switches easily for instances such as painting walls. The 3 corners (top-left, top-right, bottom-right) replicate a location in a building where people would want control of a light. One should be able to walk to any of these and operating it should toggle the light bulb without issues. And it's cool, IMO, that it's a single push button in each location. No more rocker switches? Yes, please! Also Note: You might need to hold the button down for a half a second, it should work most of the time. Have a good one.

You probably know a lot more than I do about electronics but, here are some basic circuits I started with, http://everycircuit.com/circuit/5224974367064064 _ please comment and maybe look at my other circuits. I only offer what little knowledge I have
