You can let me speak now, Mr. Wilson.
I find that this committee generally works quite well together, and I can't understand the particular member, who's been here for not very long, complaining about the system being in disarray. I have been here since 1997, and all I've seen is that wait times continuously improve, in the sense of getting longer. I never understood why that was happening. We tried to look for solutions, even when Mr. Telegdi was the chair, and this committee worked quite well to make those suggestions, yet it seemed that the problem got worse and worse.
I have one particular question that maybe you can answer, Janet. You addressed it. There was something that you said concerning certain visa offices taking upwards of three years, or whatever it might be, to process. You mentioned that there are some out there that take a few months maybe, or a lot less time. I wonder if you have some information as to where those cases are--which offices are taking longer and which offices are not.
I had a concern in opposition that it seemed to me that in certain visa offices we don't have the proper resources attributed to the numbers of applications coming in, and when we switch from certain areas where there have not been as many applications, we're still maintaining the same resources. I don't know if you have that information. You did mention that some were taking less time.
