I don't remember practicing against spread offenses as much as we did this past fall. It's (been) a lot more.

Perhaps the time has come for an independent inquiry into the spread of H5N1 over the past few years. This could help the world to learn lessons on what could have been done differently to halt the spread of the disease and help to stop further outbreaks.

What I have observed over the past 18 years is that the pace, the number of bills and the amount of time that legislators have is certainly less than what they used to have. So getting with them during the session is becoming increasingly difficult. And so you have to resort to other means. And other means includes inviting them to events, having them involved in annual meetings, things of that sort.

It makes up for all the hard losses we had in the past.

The past lies beneath the surface, intransigent truth. Remembered or not, what we say and do remains, always.

He is a person we have dealt with in the past.
