EXPLANATION OF VOTE
 Mr. Speaker: We vote yes on HB 2838 because this bill embodies the spirit of episode
number 136 of ``The Andy Griffith Show,'' entitled ``Opie's Fortune.''

 When Opie found a wallet containing fifty dollars, Andy gently taught him that when
someone comes into a lot of money, it's okay to spend a little bit, but most of the money
should be saved for the future.--Clay Aurand, Clark Shultz

EXPLANATION OF VOTE
 Mr. Speaker: Kansas has one of the lowest if not the lowest total bonded debt among
all the states. Tell me the sense in mandating transfer of ``excess funds'' into a Debt Re-
duction Fund to pay off 4% debt, and incur penalties, when better judgment may dictate
funding public education, or special education, or home and community based services for
the frail-elderly or developmentally disabled. That is, unless you want to tie up money so it
can't be used for tax reduction, or unless you never intended the fund be used at all. SB
487 isn't even politically correct, and I vote no.--Ward Loyd
