“I must, for the accuracy of the Record, point out that Senator Wallop was not convinced and was one of the four in the committee and one of the nine in the Chamber who decided they could not support this particular approach.

He was very instrumental in giving me the background and the education and the understanding of these issues. Had he not been willing to act as my tutor and mentor in this circumstance I undoubtedly would not have come to the point that I have here today.”
