Sorry for the delay, as I had to do some searching as well.

New Mexico is king when it comes to writing laws with holes.  The definition 
in found under Chapter 60 Art. 3a, Pam 60.3a-3 entitled "business license" and 
is not availablke online.  I had a friend find and read to so this is 
paraphrased.  The definition of an alcoholic beverage is any liquor wine or 
beer not to exceed 1.5 oz ABW.  REMEBER I am the messenger here.

Give you another good one: Smoking is not allowed within 15 feet of the 
entrance of a public building.  It does not say wich side of the door you 
should be on.

When smoking WAS allowed in bars, the rule was the bar had to have a full 
liquor license, and smoking must be confined to a barriered area, but the law 
did not define what a barrier was. This essentially meant you could designate 
a chair as the barrier: left side smoking and right side nonsmoking.  A local 
bar actually was sued over this issue and won bacease of the lack of defintion 
to a barrier.

So.... yeah

Chris
