[sdiy] CMOS Switch

Well, I was gonna use a 4066 but I've run into a snag.

Does anyone know of a cmos switch where the signal being switched can exceed
VCC?

I've run into an interesting problem using 4066's.
I need 60 switches.  I've got 2 registers out on this micro so 16 pins.  Was
planning to use a 74C373 per pair of 4066's but max voltage of the 373 is of
course 6volts and to switch the voltages I need ( -15volts ) I'll have to
run the 4066 right up at supply rails, which means logic true is 15 volts...

Or maybe I'm missing something easy.
