  Mr. BISHOP of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I regret that I was unavoidably 
detained from September 20-24, 2004, due to the death of my mother, 
Mrs. Minnie S. Bishop. Although I received an excused absence during 
this period, I missed rollcall votes 457-472. Had I been here I'd have 
voted as follows:
  Roll Nos. 457--``aye''; 458--``aye''; 459--``no''; 460--``aye''; 
461--``aye''; 462--``aye''; 463--``aye''; 464--``aye''; 465--``aye''; 
466--``no''; 467--``yea''; 468--``yea''; 469--``yea''; 470--``no''; 
471--``no''; and 472--``aye.''
