Does anyone else want to comment? In that case my next questions are for the radio folks, specifically Mr. Purcell and Mr. Kelly. Their opening statement spoke strongly on the need to address the core funding as well as funding of additional new outputs. How is that balanced in the context of independent radio which also operates as a commercial enterprise?
