| 0:32.0 | I'm having a little chat with Amy now, and she's trying to write a note to me about comments. We're in January. Okay, thank you. Well, I just earned about it today. Apparently, I'm not going to go into a lot of stuff about this. We got some callers on board. I want to get to you quickly here, but apparently the Pope hopes that hell is empty.
