Exactly.  As a third-generation native Californian (betcha don't see many of
those)(I'm often not proud of it, either), I find that many of our fair
state's regulatory heavy-hand can be very stupid at times.  But OTOH, live
here for awhile, deal with some of the people you may run across and you
might find out there can be a need for some of the rules.  Someday soon I'll
get fed up and move to hopefully a less stupid culture and mind-set.

In California, Stupid is spelled S T O O P I D.
