Hi, James. Ben, how are you?

You know, it's interesting. I wanted to say that I'm scared because we are recording this on a Thursday morning here, Wednesday night in the U.S., and basically, from what I can tell, being in Taiwan and mostly looking at Twitter, over the last three to four hours or so, the attitude and posture of America has sort of flipped completely
