	I haven't been following this discussion closely, but from what I
have seen, I gather that many of you may not realize how far this has
gone. In Indianapolis, an ordinance patterned after the one in Minn. was
passed by the City Council, and Mayor Hudnut promptly signed it into law.
All of this took place shortly after the 60 Minutes broadcast (I believe
about 2-3 months ago), and so the discussion is no longer academic. The
last I heard, the law had not been invoked by police, but nevertheless
was being challenged in court by a Naptown bookstore owner. Does anyone
know more about the challenge, like if it has gone to court yet?

	Indiana -- bastion of ignor-- uh, *conservative*, politics.
