Re: Response from Bruce Schwoegler

Does anyone have a digital copy of this law that they
can post...or that I can make available on my FTP
server?

Seems like everyone is speaking about it from hearsay.
 Would be nice to have something to refer to in the
discussion of this law...

Most of the effects of this law appear to be
unknown...until someone brings some of the provisions
to court.

(We also, have Joe Ross who can mediate any discussion
of such law.)  ;-)
