Just by looking at who thinks it's wrong.
Instead of going for sweeping changes that could cost Montanans jobs, the EQC opted for small changes that, while I don't agree with some of them, are more common-sense approaches that aren't radical changes with massive unintended consequences.

I am an idiot. I made sure that everything was scheduled with the notable exception of changing the date on the BTR show, which is now too late to do.
We'll run the podcast at the regularly scheduled time of 9:00, most likely without Paul, since it would be midnight ...

Helena has had a ban on smoking in all public establishments for the past 4 (or so) years. This includes bars, casinos, restaurants, etc. Physicians here have claimed that within six months of the ban, heart disease plummeted. It's good all around.
