I am not seeking to pull any tricks here. As was said in Julius Caesar, there are no tricks in pure and simple faith. I don't have any tricks. I am not seeking to pull any fast ones on the Senator. I would be glad to show any of my amendments to him. It was an honest mistake, and I was quick to apologize for it when he mentioned it. I hope that settles that. There are no more like that. I would be happy to discuss with the Senator the amendments that I have. That pretty much settles it. I can't say that we can do these tonight. I don't think they can be done tonight.
