It is still fundamental to me that creating human life just because can you utilize it devalues human life.

Well, thank you, Mr. Chairman. I appreciate your leadership on this. These are very important hearings to have, and hopefully we can look to solutions in the future. Thank you.

I think there are great arguments for us to try to get less dependent on fossil fuels anyway, simply from a strategic standpoint.

There are very, very strong arguments that it makes us less safe as a country.

We need the FAA and the National Park Service to work together to identify reasonably achievable quiet technology standards.

I do not like sitting in my backyard and having airplanes fly over my backyard.

The agency has failed to comply with these provisions, and I have to say, Mr. Chairman, it is equal opportunity failure.

I understand the concern of people for quiet technology and all of that, wanting a wonderful experience at the parks.

I sense the frustration in some of your questions, and I share some of those same frustrations.

I think that is where the frustration of a lot of people is coming in, is that every time they seem to be trying to meet something, the rules seem to be maybe changing a little bit.

Senator Ensign and I are very concerned. We have introduced legislation and, Mr. Chairman, the legislation is only a message to everyone.
