JUST IN TIME FOR THE FC LECTURES

I don't know if the two events are related, but I've just finished making my arrangements to attend the Florida College lectures, and now this ruling:
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - Let's get naked!
A federal judge struck down Daytona Beach's anti-nudity laws, saying they're unconstitutional.

Regulations prohibiting public nudity and nudity in places that sell alcohol violate the First and 14th amendments' protections of free speech and equal protection, the judge decided.

Daytona Beach also failed to prove its claim that adult nightclubs create secondary negative impacts on levels of crime, prostitution and illegal drug activity in neighborhoods, the judge wrote.

It's hard to imagine it's a coincidence.
