John, on this meeting at 3 o'clock, I don't want to limit the food price.
I want those jackasses from that stockpile group and then maybe the others, because that'll help, too.
OK, good.
Because they said here, food price, people might just want to be sure.
And then I want them there.
And I intend to really rip them of that.
All right, good.
