Yeah.
Did you get that Brant dinner list finished?
Brant dinner list, yes, sir.
It is finished.
Yeah.
Now, did you add business people, I mean, supporter types and so forth?
Yes, sir, we did.
Well, I filled it in with Colson's suggestions.
Oh, good.
And we will fill those seats.
Incidentally, there's 62 of those big chairs.
That's exactly what I want them done.
For any of those in the future, we'll use the big chairs and have 62 people.
Yeah.

This time we've invited a lot of them.
Yeah, it already had a head start on the government people, which is too bad.
We had some poor guidelines, I guess, on that, but I think we've rectified the situation.
Yeah, I understand, I understand.

Yes, sir, sure.
Yeah, all right, fine.
All right, sir.
