Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I cannot support this amendment simply because you need more than one question in order to get after whatever you are trying to get at. Usually you take one or two questions to set up the real question you want to ask. If we are only going to be able to ask one question and not be able to ask another for another forty, forty-five minutes, we may as well quit and shut it down, it is no use. We are here to ask questions. We agreed to this before we came here. We talked about it. I do not know how many times, and finally agreed to a process and all of a sudden people are trying to change things in the middle of the show because it is taking a little bit longer than they had expected. If people want to go a little faster, then do not take so long to answer the questions and do not take so long before you ask a question. I cannot support this amendment. Thank you.
