Attention Michael Claeys: As Ivan Suzman has brought to the attention of the list your position that his testimony (which was to be in the hearing testimony record, I believe) would not be distributed to members of the Appropriations Committee, I am one among others who would appreciate knowing your reason for this exclusion. As you may not know, many listmembers have been so impressed with Ivan's testimony that they went to the trouble of sending copies to their own congresspersons. If there is a reason of which we are unawaret for not including it for the committee members, your explanation would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance, and for all that you and PAN do on our behalf.
