Ed, I wouldn't call this surprising after yesterday.

0:37.5

As a matter of fact, I wouldn't call it surprising after he left the rotation.

0:43.4

I have to say I expected we'd have this end before too long. I think it's something Matt probably wanted from the day he left the rotation. Did this surprise the team at all?

0:51.1

Well, I think they're surprised here today, Mike.

1:00.0

Yeah, I mean, I think surprise on some levels, it's not shocking at all on other levels when you, you know, you lay it out.

And I just thought it was an interesting question to ask, and there's really no way to answer it because, you know, did it cause thoracic, the problems with the thoracic? I have no idea. And I don't know if anybody does. Maybe a doctor can say, I'm not sure. But nonetheless, you know, I think the timeline was also a little interesting to me, too.
