Team, I contacted State Senator Christine Kehoe's office today and her Chief of staff (in San Diego) told me they would be glad to help guide us to the right representatives for the effort. The legislative submission window has expired but she said getting in the proposed legislation over the summer would put it first in line for the next session. She asked to be forwarded the proposed changes. I haven't read Fred's proposed text yet - I will tonight. I'll be blunt - generally that kind of language puts me into a coma (not your fault Fred - it's just the legalese). Can those that thrive on that ( and you know who you are) pick it apart and apply a devil's advocate view? I always suspect Murphy lies in wait.
