In what appears to be a first, the US House of Representatives now has a
Congressman who can code...in assembly. That's right, a Congressman with
geek skills.

Democratic Representative Bill Foster won a special election this past
Saturday in the 14th Congressional District of Illinois. This was the
district that former Republican Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert held
from 1986-2007. Hastert stepped down in November of 2007.

He is apparently conversant in Assembly, Fortran, and VB. Sadly, RPG
apparently not one of his skills :(
