I believe that since we have ICE working all across this country, working with many of the employers, that the knowledge base and the promotion of Basic Pilot would be something that would be mobile and portable and flexible. Since it is an Internet-based program, all of these employers, at least the larger employers, have computers and Internet access. So the flexibility of this and the mobility of it I think is clear. The message that comes from this I don't think constrains ICE, but encourages them to do something I think they should be doing as part of their overall process. I would encourage the chairman to consider my remarks in his response.
