So what can the agency do to update the technology that it has to have to manage this eyepopping amount of data that youre dealing with every day . Well, i think one of the underlying challenges you just mentioned, theres a tremendous volume of data that we process. We recognize that we have to move away from cobalt to some extent, but not fully, because in some instances its the best language. There is a transition to modernize our systems. One of the challenges will be how quic ....

You really had several stints at the agency, so youve seen the changes over time. And i think youll work with us particularly in an area im very interested, make sure were using modern technology.

This crisis. I look forward to our continuing conversation this morning, thank you. Thank you. I would like to take a few minutes away from this hearing to talk about someone who was a dear friend of mine, a mentor and a member of the house Judiciary Committee, my predecessor representing the sixth district of virginia congressman m. Caldwell butler passed away last night around midnight. He served with a special election in 1972 until his retirement at the beginning of 1983 he served on this committee that entire time, and he served here with great distinction at a time when this committee went through some very difficult issues, including his being very actively involved in the watergate investigation and in the impeachment proceedings relating to former president richard nixon. He was a Public Servant in the truest sense of the word. He has given immeasurably to his c ....
