I lost the bill (S.1345) in the clutter. It became S. 1513, then got
absorbed into H.R. 6, a general educational improvement act. H.R. 6 was
passed by the House on Friday, Oct. 7. It will go to the President
imminently (the Senate also signed off on H.R. 6, apparently without
needing to go to conference committee!).

Thanks to Gerard Vandeberg for the information. Text of H.R. 6 is still on
the House gopher. I will try to download it today in order to have text
available for those who don't have access to the House gopher.

Cheers,
