Plus side no one gets to mess with it. Down side it's a time consumer, but not as big if it was hijacked and sent back through the carousel. The current status referred for enrollment means a final version of the bill is being entered into the books and printed and will be delivered to the governnors desk soon. This is not dead just making it's way through the machine of bueracracy. Once at the governers desk he has 5 legislative business days, to sign, veto or do nothing. Sign or do nothing and this becomes law on November 1st 2010. Veto this bill and it has to go back to the house for an over ride vote. If this hits his desk tomorrow he has until 5/19 to take action on it. If he vetoes on the 19th there may not be enough time remaining in the legislative session to over ride the veto, in which case it would be dead.  Fortunately this is tied to legislation privatizing personally identifiable information reltaed to CCW permit holders. A recent gambit to get the names of CCW permit holders in oklahoma has been to file a freedom of information act request, this closes that avenue and I hope it goes through.</blockquote>
