| 0:21.7 | We had to bring in a backup guest. |
| 0:24.4 | A backup. |
| 0:24.7 | It was been a long time since we brought in a backup guest, and thank goodness, because Tom Nash was here, and he was able to come in and take a question. |

| 1:33.6 | Carlo here by phone, and |
| 1:35.2 | when we have |
| 1:37.4 | the guests by phone, I have to |
| 1:38.9 | be really careful not to hang |
| 1:41.3 | up on the guest. You may be surprised |
