To the Editor:

There is not going to be a law passed only for Tubestock.

I realize our self-importance in the community, but the idea of this law raises serious questions reaching far beyond Tubestock; what would such a law mean for family barbecues on decks by the river or lakes? What would constitute congregating? Do you have to be in the water, or simply by the water? Can people really congregate on water? What is a safe distance from others so that you're not congregating? It is kind of hard to imagine what a law would look like that would make Tubestock illegal. Of course, they have said that a person can be an open container so, I guess anything can happen.
