Well, I thank the gentleman for sharing his perspective, his stories, and some fond memories. I appreciate that very much, and I know the family does as well. Next I will yield to the gentleman from Maryland, Steny Hoyer, the minority whip who served for a decade, Mr. Speaker, with Bill Frenzel until Bill retired in 1991. And that relationship continued after Bill's retirement as both had a passion for working on the Federal budget and bridging the gap between Republicans and Democrats when it comes to our country's spending and tax policies. Mr. Speaker, Congressman Hoyer I think often pointed out Bill's willingness to put all things on the table when it comes to the budget to find common ground with his counterparts on the other side of the aisle. I am happy to yield to the gentleman.
