I apologize if it seemed like that's what I was doing. I was unclear on
your basis, and now I'm a little clearer. Not real clear on the numbers,
though, after reading the papers. I feel a little like Groucho Marx in
"Duck Soup." He becomes emperor of Freedonia, and one of his cabinet
members gives him a report. "Do you understand the report?" the minister
asks.

Groucho says, "Understand it? Why a four year old child could understand
this report." He flings it in the minister's face. Then he leans over to
one of his aides and whispers, "Run out and find me a four year old child,
I can't make head or tail out of it."

Anyway, I wish Glenn a good rest. But things will be awfully quiet around
here.
