I believe AvWeb reported that the rockefeller bill was expected, and was
pretty much rumored to be pronounced 'dead on arrival'. It will be

You made that up, didn't you?

The IAS indicator says IAS, not ASI.

Why do you come here pretending to know something

The North American Association of Teachers of Czech (NAATC) is going to
