On the recordSeptember 13, 1999
After all the buying and spying, the Department of Energy has announced their new security policy. All scientists must now report any and all romantic affairs that they have with foreigners. Now if that is not enough to centerfold our Playboys, check this out. There is one exception, and I am not kidding: one night stands are still permitted. Beam me up, Mr. Speaker. The next time, Congress, we see an ad for a temporary, overnight, meaningful relationship, be careful. It may be from a real rocket launcher at the Department of Energy. Launch this. I yield back all the pillow talk at the Department of Energy.
