I would just like to thank you for the work that you are doing on this, and I believe our real message is to the many people out there--some of whom may even think that this law has been repealed. They have tried so many times. As you pointed out a little earlier, this is an opportunity that is there for the next 5 days. Get beyond all the political chatter. Turn to a group like the American Cancer Society or the American Diabetes Association. Look at the information that is there. Then go to one of the many enrollment fairs we are having across San Antonio this weekend. There is one up in Austin that is going to go almost 24 hours straight. These are opportunities to get out and do this. I know you had a very successful enrollment fair in San Antonio. I had one over at Progreso Hall. Our colleague, Pete Gallego, had one out at Palo Alto. These have been opportunities for a wide range of our neighbors to come out and participate. We just want to encourage them to do more.
