On the recordMay 3, 1994
I want to conclude my comments by again applauding Congressman Zeliff and Congressman Inhofe for their spark, for their enthusiasm and for really architecting the possibilities that we have in front of us. And tomorrow is a big day. We do not know yet what the outcome of that day will be. We are looking forward to seeing those names go on that petition, and we will find out exactly who if any, and I hope everybody, as has already been mentioned, does sign up. And we do have the beginning. If it is not 56 hours, that is fine. But we have the beginning of some openness, to let a little air in, so to speak. And I think that this institution could use some of that, and I wanted to commend and applaud the efforts made.
