We should be able to hear the presentation. We will not continue with it. We will have it better set up for our next meeting where we will all have headphones or something. We will have to abandon it until the next day. Out of respect to the family, I want this to be done properly and we are not doing it justice.

I thank all of our witnesses, including Dr. McHale, Dr. Griffin and Dr. Vanbellingen for being with us. I thank them most sincerely for taking the time to come here. It is very is much appreciated. We cannot do our work without their expertise and we are truly grateful to them for giving us that expertise. Their questions and answers are very helpful to us in doing the job of work is ahead of us.
