[0:00] Excuse me.
[0:09] Yeah.
[0:09] I'm going to call the chair.
[0:10] I was talking to John Burris on this.
[0:14] Because anyhow, we should hand him a question on the federal takeover on it.
[0:15] You know, the stories on the federal takeover of .
[0:17] Burns is, I think, trying to attempt to say that he even knows, indicating that he was four before, and trying to pull away from that federal takeover.
[0:32] He can't.
[0:32] I don't get the situation.
[0:33] I did.
[0:35] where he's saying that he's not- No, that's why I'm going to call him.

[0:58] It's not going to be asked.

[0:59] Very good.
[0:59] Okay.

[1:00] It's not with the film of yesterday.
[1:01] As you know, that was introduced in the report.
[1:02] And I thought if you had no objections, I'd sit at the end of the meeting and get a little motion and then we'll sign it.

[1:17] I'm going to deal with that, but I'll come back after the fire.

[1:29] I told Satchar, I said, you know, I said, you can always figure a minute, and most of the time, usually a minute and a half, is 0 to 7.
[1:50] So I did 7, and I did 9, and I did 10.
[1:51] Well, this is kind of, they did not use all, all the ADC strokes that you said.
[1:52] Yeah, yeah.
[1:52] I'll see.
[1:53] I'm ready.
[1:53] I'll let it.
[1:54] It's there.
[1:55] It's there.
[1:55] The people there at the meeting, they're still listening.
[2:00] I've already canceled the meeting afterwards, so he doesn't need to speak about that.
[2:02] If there's nothing else, I'll see you tomorrow.
[2:03] I think ABC wrote something about what the advantage of doing that .
[2:20] Oh, yes, sir.
[2:20] CBS used the intro that you read, and then another copy, another take, NBC, a combination of two takes.
