Ms Stahl,

The Help Desk responds to emails received from weekdays from 9 am to 5 pm, Eastern Times. The emails you sent on December 28 were received after hours so they did not receive an immediate reply.

Since you do not have a phone to contact the agency representative listed in the proposed rule in docket CDC-2015-0112 we sent your contact information directly to the agency for response.

Ms. Stahl,

Thank you for your comments and your inquiry about public posting. Once you submit comments, they are not immediately posted. There is another step that needs to happen before the public can view inquiries. We have received numerous comments and it sometimes takes 1-2 days for comments to get posted. At this time several of your comments have been posted. Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.

Dear Ms. Greenspan:

I’ve just checked the CDC website and am happy to see that my comments have made it past your reviewers. I feel like I just won the lottery! 🙂

Am I allowed to ask if you’re related to Alan Greenspan? (Yikes!)

Happy New Year, Ms. Greenspan. May you always have the ability to manage whatever pain life brings you.

Johnna from Albuquerque
