That's a law 82 00:04:42,940 --> 00:04:47,740 Absolutely. There is a law so I couldn't find a direct citation for this one 83 00:04:47,740 --> 00:04:53,120 But there's a bunch of like 10 wacky laws in Michigan articles that all say that so I think that used to be a law 84 00:04:53,220 --> 00:04:54,320 And that it's not a thing anymore 85 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:54,680 But yes 86 00:04:54,660 --> 00:05:01,720 It absolutely was and I think it harkens back to like Victorian sounding like make sure it covers decency 87 00:05:02,180 --> 00:05:07,140 Standards or something, but yeah wacky Scott Sault Ste.
