No. This is a one-stop shopping center. NTIS is a one-stop shopping center for exactly the information you are talking about. What we are doing is creating a brand new system. All I am saying is if somebody has been dealing with NTIS or dealing with the National Technology Center, the fact is I just would like to see them exempt from having to deal with this. Let me make one other point. What I am wondering is, there are a certain number of groups that have already been exempted. In a deal made with Chairman Dingell, we already exempted a bunch of people from this, and now what we are doing is bogging down and saying, 'Well, we made our deal with Chairman Dingell so he would not oppose this on the floor.' But all these other people out there who were not a part of Chairman Dingell's deal are now going to be covered by this thing. If in fact Chairman Dingell would exempt his people, there are some others you should exempt also.
