    It'll be four months before anybody knows what the President's Affordable Care Act will really look like in California, but it's beginning to take shape. It might turn out to be less expensive than predicted — if enough of those who don't have insurance decide to sign up instead of paying a $95 penalty.

We hear about that and get a preview of what the roll-out of Obamacare is beginning to look like in California.
