[20:05] I think they probably just had another sitting here. [20:15] Well, that would indicate that they weren't here. [20:30] Well, if that's the way they're going to play, then you've got to play it under DMT, so... [20:32] There's Hellwood. [20:35] I'd like to see Henry go rushing over there. [20:40] There he goes. [20:41] Henry's got to go over there. [20:49] I don't know. [20:49] Maybe we'll see, guys. [20:50] I guess you've just got to be sure, though, that you don't get a little long here, too long here. [20:57] I don't want them to be in a situation where they think we're going to be talking, and they bang us, and they bang us, and all that, before they watch us. [21:12] I'll hang up. [22:46] So I was thinking that a very good theme for you in your personal conversations with the graduates and the rest of the students is thinking about the development of talent.
