You, in my judgment, have the best job in the Administration. You have the responsibility for 442 million acres, which for a rancher is not bad, and I suppose there are times you think you need to be skilled at the round-up tech niques to get everybody in. You have the past in the sense that you have responsibility for approximately 107 historic sites that tell the story of America. It is a wonderful part of our Nation's culture and heritage, such as Independence Hall. You have this past year, 384 million visitors in the facilities that you have responsibility for.
