Weyermann on TV

Joelle - all power to you Texans trying to get things straightened out, and it's a pity that small brewers didn't get everything they were aiming for. Hats off, however, to Judge Sparks and his sense of the ridiculous, and he's definitely on your side - " For instance, Texas would likely face no (legal) obstacle if it wished to pass a law defining the word ‘milk’ to mean ‘a nocturnal flying mammal that eats insects and employs echolocation.’ Under TABC’s logic, Texas would then be authorized to prohibit use of the word ‘milk’ by producers of a certain liquid dairy product, but also to require Austin promoters to advertise the famous annual ‘Milk Festival’ on the Congress Avenue Bridge." Wow!
