abolt243 Posted January 16, 2009 at 08:16 PM Posted January 16, 2009 at 08:16 PM Tech, Thanks for posting those, but you can go here. (That's a sticky at the top of this forum, Illinois Politics.) and see a listing of the bills broken down into good, bad or shell. Keep watching though, the more eyes the better and by all means, if one is missed, post it and let everyone know. Thanks,Tim
tech141 Posted January 16, 2009 at 08:20 PM Author Posted January 16, 2009 at 08:20 PM Yeah, I see that NOW. Too bad I didn't see it before I posted all of those. Maybe an admin can just delete my posts....

Maybe an admin can just delete my posts.... I'll do that if you're sure you want it done. They are getting some looks and some comments. Whatever you say. Tim
GWBH Posted January 16, 2009 at 10:08 PM Posted January 16, 2009 at 10:08 PM tech141,No harm done at all - thanks for running point for us!!
Molly B. Posted January 17, 2009 at 02:38 PM Posted January 17, 2009 at 02:38 PM I appreciate you listing them individually - this way we can have running discussion on each of them and not bog down the overall listing locked at the top of the forum. And you saved me a ton of time because I could copy and paste your listings with the synopsis into my own comprehensive listing of the bills that I use for a variety of purposes! Good work and appreciated! Molly B.
