Thank you very much indeed, Mr President. The point I was making is the reason I disagree with Dr Griffith and agree on one occasion with Mr Dreyfus is that, as Mr Dreyfus says, most legal problems are capable of another outcome. If I have learnt anything in my legal career, I have learnt that. Mr Dreyfus is quite right, because, Senator Collins, the essence of the law, and this direction was a legal rule, is that legal propositions are innately contestable.
