9. c-span told me not sure!

Please, where are you getting this confirmation from? I have called C-Span two times, both times the lady says "It's not a hearing" and i say "I know, I know, its a briefing, but can you please tell me if it is scheduled?" She tells me they won't know until this afternoon. I told her this last conversation, (1 minute ago) That PDA is saying it is going to be on C-Span and I need to know if I should take off work. Her response was a disgusted remark about how she knows they are spreading it around and have been calling her like crazy. I told her that it just shows how much interest there is and that I hope they air it. MEANWHILE while I was on hold I could here what sounded like Chellie Pingree's hearing going on on C-Span Radio. I knew this was going on today, but when I had asked C-Span earlier about this hearing they must have thought I meant the Conyer's hearing, and told me it was tomorrow. I thought they were the same as well. I am off to listen now.

11. checking with the producers

yet again!!!!


grrrr! maybe we should keep the actio item up there saying "KEEP 'EM HONEST" lemme check

[Kevin Spidel]

12. HOT NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!

I just called C-SPAN Viewer Services. When I asked, the woman said, "This is HOT news. We just finished the scheduling meeting and you're the first to hear that we are definitely carrying the Conyers hearings tomorrow morning at 10 a.m. Eastern time."

It's a done deal in the last few minutes.



THANK YOU TEAM!!!!

13. Can someone post this for me...

Right now I am listening to Common Cause's conference live on C-Span radio. It was hard to find because it is not scheduled. Just go to c-span.org then go down to the side links and click on the little >>> marks next to the C-Span Radio title bar. Once there click to listen with either real player or windows media. It is on now and very interesting. All about the problems with this election!!!
Gotta go
