Further parliamentary inquiry. If you recall, Mr. Speaker, I yielded 15 seconds and then an additional 10 seconds, and the gentlelady from New York repeated that she could not hear the question. In fairness to the tally of the time, how can that time run when she could not hear? And wouldn't we be entitled to at least the time lost in debate because the House was not in order and she could not hear? The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Chair may stop the clock while obtaining order. However, the Chair recognizes and acknowledges that in the 15 seconds that was first allotted to the gentleman from California, he had not completed his question. In the 10 seconds that was subsequently lent to the gentleman from California, he still did not finish his question, and at no point in time did any Member suggest that they needed order from those who controlled the time, which was the gentleman from California.
