Hey, serving listeners. It's just me today. As many of you know, I have been

0:04.2

dedicating myself to answering all of your emailed questions by the end of

0:08.6

the year. And it is the last day of the year today. It is New Year's Eve,

0:12.9

December 31st, 2021. So it's my last chance to answer all of your emailed
