I don't remember the number now; it was passed in either 1992 or
1993. It marginally softened our stance against audible traffic
signals. I thought it was somewhat ambiguous and blurred our
unambiguous anti-pee-pee-caw-caw policy. I thought its
ambiguities would keep it from passing so I didn't rush to the
microphone to tell the Emperor he had no clothes. Turns out I was
wrong. The resolution passed.

I was there but the nature of the resolution escapes me now. I'll
probably remember just after I've sent off this reply packet!
