I thought that the ranking member was going to break out the Washington, D.C., phone book and begin to read from it. It was a fascinating discussion of a litany of Washington-based special interest groups. I know they appreciated the shout-out; I know it will help them in their fundraising efforts; but it has absolutely nothing--nothing-- to do with the bill that we are debating, nothing to do with the bill that we are debating. {time} 1000 So the ranking member said how important it is that consumers receive an annual--an annual--notice of the privacy policies of financial institutions.

The time of the gentleman has expired.
