  Mr. BARROW. Mr. Speaker, on rollcall No. 3, I was unable to cast my 
vote on January 3, 2005. The pager provided to me by House 
Administration, to notify me of votes, was defective. Consequently, I 
did not receive the announcement that the vote was taking place in time 
to cast my vote on the House Floor. Had I been present, I would have 
voted ``nay.''
