So it turns out that yesterday was officially proclaimed Milton Friedman Day in the state of California, by executive edict of the Governor.

I was busy working for a living last night; so I seem to have missed the Spontaneous Demonstration. Well, damn. Maybe I can catch the next big event, like when the USPS issues a Lysander Spooner stamp.
