N our panel. [applaus [applause]. A reminder if you missed any of this conference you can watch it online in the video library. Tonight on cspan2, we have been featuring booktv beginning at 8. Tonight, authors featured on after word will be with us. Tonight, beginning at 8 p. M. Eastern here on cspan2. Yesterday, marked 30 years of gavel to gavel senate floor coverage on cspan2. Our special program featured video from the senate floor going back to the first televised session. Here is a look the senate is trying to make the best use of the technology in the 21st century to remain true. It is difficult to forge compromise. Everybody has to give and that is not photogenic.
