  Mr. WELLER. Mr. Speaker, on Thursday, March 4, 2004 I was unavoidably 
detained and was absent from the House floor while votes took place. 
Had I been present, I would have voted ``aye'' on the consideration of 
H.R. 3752, the Commercial Space Launch Amendments Act of 2004, as well 
as ``aye'' on the consideration of H. Res. 412, and H. Res. 56. I ask 
that these comments be submitted for the Congressional Record.
