The Post carried the story this morning of our state government's foot-shooting, but they didn't exactly detail how the screwup ocurred. This newsleader story does a much better job:

The problem came about because state legislators attempting finally to remove [laws requiring a "sabbath" day off be granted to employees] from the books goofed, only completing half the job. They left the actual laws, but repealed later amendments that nullified the law and others that listed businesses and government agencies that were exempt.

My state tax dollars at work this time. As always, it has to be a crisis of epic proportions before any real action can be taken. God I love government...
