                         HORNOS FOR COLORADANS

  (Mr. BOB SCHAFFER of Colorado asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute.)
  Mr. BOB SCHAFFER of Colorado. Mr. Speaker, the previous speaker, the 
gentleman from Kansas, mentioned a project that takes place in my 
district in Colorado, these horno ovens that we will find built in the 
Fort Collins area. It is a pile of mud. It is about that high, and some 
people believe they are attractive, but the AmeriCorps Program built 
this pile of mud in Fort Collins as a gift to the people of my 
community, as a gift.
  I just want to point out that when Members think of the AmeriCorps 
Program and the volunteers out working hard to deliver important 
projects to the community, I do invite my colleagues, as the gentleman 
said, to come through Fort Collins and look at the mud pile that the 
AmeriCorps Program has left in my community in Fort Collins and think 
about how vigorously we should support continuation of the program.
