[1:57] All right.
[2:00] I can try to move him back to where he was doing it.

[2:10] Just keep your eyes on the break.
[2:31] I don't know if you understand what she told you.
[2:33] I don't know whether you want the assistant secretaries or the undersecretaries.
[2:38] Is that correct?
[2:39] All right.
[2:41] Bill Timmons, if you have a recommendation.
[2:45] He's so compatible with the energy consulting.
[2:48] On the 3rd, this is just released by a huge bipartisan leader.
[2:51] Jackson, Javis, and Randolph-Gough are going to lead in the 3rd.
[2:56] So what Timmons has recommended
[2:59] is that the conclusion of the bipartisan meeting on Wednesday, which is on energy, at 9.30, to just come in here with Albert O'Neill, Ford, Manziel, Scott, and Jackson, who are going to be in the energy meeting anyway, to bring in Javits and Ribicoff, and just do the session right here at that point, rather than taking another time.

[4:15] Afterwards, there's a recommendation that you do go and ask her.
[4:38] I'm going to see Roy Ashton.
[4:45] I'm going to recommend that you do a film clip on energy on Wednesday.
[4:56] All right.
[4:56] There's also a recommendation.
[4:58] I'm sorry.
[5:00] I'm sorry.
[5:00] There's also been recommended that you do a so-called energy commitment.
[5:05] This would be on Wednesday.
[5:08] Now, what you have done is energy.
[5:10] You've got a film club.
[5:11] You've got the .
[5:11] Why do I need them to discuss the message?
[5:14] I thought I'm going to be at the leader's.
[5:16] Are they going to be at the leader's meeting?
[5:18] Yes, sir, they are.
[5:18] I'm not going to stay at the second meeting at all.
[5:24] I wish I was in the leader's with all of you.
[5:27] I'm about time.
[5:31] Now, you indicated that you wanted to have a joint meeting.
[5:36] Uh, that still wasn't in the suite.
[5:38] Uh, it could be, uh, Wednesday afternoon, maybe.
[5:43] Or what do you think they are, the burns?
[5:46] Well, one of the burns, we do, uh, A1, we do burns tomorrow at 3.
[5:50] I'm putting them on.
[5:56] I'm putting them off, and then I have to put burns in a quadriangle.
[6:19] Thank you.
[6:48] Thank you, sir.
