		<description>Good luck in your search for Leroy Smith from Oak Ridge. He&#039;s no relation to me, but I&#039;m leaving your query here. If it turns up in someone else&#039;s web search, maybe it can help you find him.</description>

		<description>Frank Munger reported the other day (at &lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Frank Munger&#039;s blog&quot; href=&quot;http://blogs.knoxnews.com/knx/munger/2007/12/not_good_news_for_retirees.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://blogs.knoxnews.com/knx/munger/2007/12/not_good_news_for_retirees.html&lt;/a&gt;) that Congressman Zach Wamp says that DOE secretary Samuel Bodman is strongly opposed to any change in the pension situation for Oak Ridge retirees. That&#039;s hardly a surprise -- DOE&#039;s opposition has been evident for some time. Congress needs to take action to direct DOE to play fair with Oak Ridge retirees.</description>
