  Mr. BRADY of Pennsylvania. Madam Speaker, on the occasion of his 
retirement on May 1, 2009, we rise to thank Mr. Robert ``Bob'' Warnick 
for thirty-one years of distinguished service to the United States 
House of Representatives. Bob has served this great institution as a 
valuable employee of House Information Resources, HIR, in the Office of 
the Chief Administrative Officer.
  Bob began his tenure with the United States House of Representatives 
in May of 1978 in House Information Resources, HIR, as a Senior Systems 
Analyst, SSA. As an SSA, he successfully implemented a system to 
generate the Committee Calendar for the Committee on Public Works and 
Transportation using HIR's Legislative Information Management System, 
LIMS, developed a case history and mailing list system for the Helsinki 
Commission, and successfully implemented the first Correspondence 
Management System, CMS, on the Hill.
  In 1987, he transferred to the Administrative Systems Division as the 
Senior Project Leader for LIMS. In 1995, he was promoted to Senior 
Systems Specialist and transferred to the Integration Group. As a 
senior member of this group, he was tasked with the design and 
implementation of several applications using Standard Generalized Mark-
Up Language, SGML. As a proof of concept project, his group 
successfully converted and produced three House documents using SGML.
  In 1996, he was transferred to the Cyber Congress task force within 
the Integration Group. He was appointed to the position of Senior 
Internet Systems Specialist when the Cyber Congress task force was 
renamed the Web System Branch, WSB. His important contributions as a 
team member in the CAO Advanced Business Solutions Web Solutions Branch 
have resulted in continued success of the Web Solutions Design team 
where he designed and implemented Member and Committee Web sites and 
provided a wealth of knowledge of the Web Indexed Document Automation, 
WIDA, service application to staff and Member offices.
  On behalf of the entire House community, we extend congratulations to 
Robert ``Bob'' Warnick for many years of dedication and outstanding 
contributions to the United States House of Representatives. We wish 
Bob many wonderful years in fulfilling his retirement dreams.
