I am very grateful that Senator Sherry been requested by his leader to come in here today and defend his untenable position of overnight. It is always nice to get positive reinforcement of the fact that you are actually making the appropriate comments. Senator Sherry may or may not be aware—I would be a bit surprised if he is not—that his esteemed leader addressed the IFSA national conference in August 2006. I do not know whether you are aware of that, Senator Sherry. You are not responding, so I assume you were not aware of that.
