                 COMMENDATIONS TO THE PRESIDING OFFICER

  Mr. LOTT. Mr. President, I commend the Presiding Officer on what an 
outstanding job he is doing. We appreciate

the fact that on this beautiful Friday afternoon, approaching 3 
o'clock, the distinguished Senator from Kentucky is here, on duty, and 
enjoying every moment of it.
  Now, may I proceed to the closing?
  Thank you for not responding, Mr. President, to my comments.
