Hornell Lincoln Day Dinner last night.  No new word on whether he's running this Fall.

Today's New York Times has a story about Presidential earmarks.  Like a number of other Republicans, Kuhl has been stepping up the rhetoric on earmarks.  The Times article makes it clear, if it wasn't already, that there's more than a little political motivation in the Republicans' new-found religion on earmarks.

Biofuels are looking a little less wonderful after some scientific studies show that they increase, rather than decrease, greenhouse gas emissions.  This comes on top of earlier news that ethanol subsidies have pushed food costs to historical highs.
