[0:25] Now he will go now to... [0:27] to Saigon and then to Tokyo. [0:31] Yeah, that's right. [0:35] That's good, you can go on a week and have a great little interest. [0:44] Yeah, yeah, that's good. [0:47] You know, I was certainly pleased, I've been pleased with the way Rogers and Laird have maintained a little, you know, they've been doing well since then. [0:56] Yeah, yeah. [0:56] Yeah, well, the whole point is that it's totally right. [1:03] I thought that was a pretty, I mean, that Vance and Harriman saying, well, that's true. [1:09] They didn't really back, they didn't back this guy on the key point. [1:13] The key point was whether or not he had told us of anything at all, you know what I mean? [1:17] You know what I mean? [1:18] as they held everybody and swiveled around about whether this or that. [1:26] But as an airman, I think it's just a very little part of the curriculum. [1:33] Good, good. [1:35] Good luck, come on. [1:38] And it's good what he said. [1:45] Yeah, good, good. [1:47] And that's great. [1:50] Well, anyway, I told you a little about it. [1:59] Yeah. [1:59] Yeah. [1:59] Yeah. [2:00] Okay. [2:00] Well, we'll just stay on in here. [2:03] You've got the PR panel. [2:10] We should be, I think we should be mum about everything this week. [2:13] Not say a week, because they're having a platform. [2:16] The rest of the year, they're nothing. [2:18] all week, particularly when we build up the expectations. [2:24] But that is going to happen. [2:25] We just want to come back.
