I learned of the existence of OLS Drafting Guide and especially its location on the legislature's website; I doubt I would have found it on my own. I learned that captions are much more significant than I realized. I learned the OLS and its personnel are available to me as a drafter and not only to members of the legislature.

Excellent presentation.
