Looks like a stupid law, all right. In the event that you don't succeed
in getting it overturned, you could buy a few Cornelius kegs from Brewer's
Discount, http://www.rcbequip.com/, transfer your beer into them, then
return the commercial keg. Homebrewers use these all the time. They should
work fine with your existing regulator and CO2 bottle but you may need
some fittings to attach to the Corny keg (they have those, too... they're
cheap). You can fit several Corny kegs into a refrigerator, too, so you
could potentially have several beers on tap.

Heck, you might even want to investigate doing some homebrewing yourself.
It's easy and fun. rec.crafts.brewing is the place for more info. That'd
probably also be a good place to recruit people to oppose the law.

(no connection with Brewer's Discount, other than as a satsified customer)

Just remember, when you return the empty keg the day after you picked it up
be sure to tell the guy at the counter that it was tricky, but you managed
to find a bunch of highschool students to help you get rid of that keg so
fast. If you had more time you might have been able to handle it yourself,
but thank goodness for all those helpful highschoolers...

If enough people were to do this I bet the silly factor would become obvious
real quick. Nah, they would just ban highschool. Would save all that money
in education...
