I appreciate that. The thing I would like to simply point out, and I think this is important for the gentleman from New York [Mr. Owens] and everyone else to understand, is we do not delete anything in the parental involvement section of the bill except that one section that says, ``You have to prove that you have spent at least 1 percent.'' Every one of the other programmatic requirements is still there. Now I say to my colleagues, ``The problem you're going to face is that in order to comply you're going to have to articulate exactly every one of the sections, A, B, C, D, E and (2), to prove that you are doing those activities which would qualify for that 1 percent of, quote, unquote, parental involvement, and it's like I said earlier. We're not trying to eliminate parental involvement. We are just trying to eliminate a requirement down to the last single percentile of allocation of funds.
