Actually, I am going to defer to your wisdom, Mr. Chair. I don't think I can do what I wanted to do, given what you just said. In the wake of everything my colleague Mr. Allen said so eloquently, when I added my name to the list of speakers, I wanted to propose Mr. Shipley's friendly amendment in the appropriate manner, even it meant doing so formally, if necessary. But in light of what you just said, I don't think I can do that just yet, since we are discussing Mr. Byrne's amendment.
