October 14, 1978 Prohibition was repealed

[Debacle]

Twenty nine years ago today, October 14th, 1978, House Resolution 1377 (Senate Amendment 3534) was signed and put into effect by President Jimmy Carter. The great thing about this wasn't that the House of Representatives and the President could actually agree on something, but that this repealed a somewhat shady law prohibiting home brewing.

So you home brewers, tip a bottle back for 'ole Jimmy, and thank him for making it legal.
