    Sounds like the study that they just completed did not give them the data that they were looking for. The article also has several mistakes. Congress did not suspend the need for a 34 hour reset, they just removed the provision of two 1am to 5am periods and the time between resets.

    If con is the opposite of pro, does that mean congress is the opposite of progress?
