    Sure. 200,000 emails to send, THEN the system needs to work through the backlog of post notifications. I've felt for a while that CP needs a seperate mail server for the newsletter....

    You think that was confusing, try watching a few hours of C-SPAN! Inside the beltway they speak a different language, and in a different style than the rest of us are equipped to understand. IT tkaes lots of practice to break the code... Nobody wants to read a diary by someone who has not seen the shadow of Bubba on the prison shower wall in front of them!

I work for a German owned company. I work personally with Germans almost every day. I work personally with people from the UK and Spain a couple times a month. I've developed friendships with all of these folks and quite honestly in 17 years I've never heard a single one of them mention that the US government influences their daily life. I've heard them joke about our presidents now and then (Bush Sr, Clinton, Bush Jr) but I've also heard them joke about their own leaders too. Often times they complain about their high taxes or socialized healthcare. Mike Mullikin :beer: Some mornings, it's just not worth chewing through the leather straps. - Emo Philips

    I went straight to the Source[^] - the resolution itself. As far as I can tell it specifies only ONE date: the report to be made 60 days after the resumption of inspections. I think that we just saw the only specific deadline set by this resolution pass... Maybe some earlier resolutions had some kinds of dates and "final reports", but 1441 does not seem to.
