Wonder if C-span will cover this or some speech at an annual convention on the future of pork bellies? Place your bets.

This Information is posted to the Official Y2k site (Sen. Bennett's nest) today. Apparently they will have the real audio/video running during the testimony/press conference. No times listed though.
