First of all I want to compliment the gentleman for his humanitarian effort on behalf of Taiwan. When the gentleman said that all assistance had to go through Beijing, I read in I think today's wire service that indicated that even the Red Cross had to appeal to Beijing before they could go into Taiwan. If that is the case, of course, that is abominable. We would hope that that would be straightened out. I thank the gentleman for yielding.

Yes, I am familiar with that, but Agent Orange is not the kind of spraying that they are using here. They are using Roundup that the farmers themselves use for their weeds. The farmers in Colombia use this Roundup themselves. We use it.
