Right before lunch I called the offices of the three representatives who
cover Centre County.  I know all three so I'm sure my messages got through.
One, Benninghoff, is a sponsor so he would do what he could.  Depending on
what they are tied up on they may or may not have the time to work on this
bill though.

I also called the office of Representative Evans of Philadelphia, he is
chair of the Appropriations Committee.  At the request of his staff member I
dashed together an e-mail and sent it to her.  It was forwarded to Rep.
Evans and an analyst.

I've heard nothing since and have not had the time to check the
Legislature's web site.
