Well, as I said at the beginning of the hour, Mr. Murphy and Mr. Altmire, I'm on the ``something'' side of 30, but I am glad to be with you because I am hoping that we, together, have brought an energy to this Congress that really has set a new tone and will help us set a new direction for this country, not just on the war on Iraq, but on health care, on energy, on education and all the policies that the American people want us to get to work on and we've been working hard on. Before we go, I do want to say that Speaker Pelosi's 30-Something Working Group can be e-mailed at [email protected]. The 30-Somethings, whom I am now a proud guest, being on the something side, can be visited, and here is the Web site address on this chart, www.speaker.gov/30something/index.html. So I invite everybody who has been working tonight to visit the 30-Something Web site for information on what the agenda for America is that Democrats have been working on. And I thank you for the opportunity to be with you.
