Thank you so much. First of all, Mr. Chairman, I would like to thank you for your cooperation on this amendment. I know that there are other words that you would, perhaps, use to explain to the homeowner or to the citizen your point of view; but you did work with me on this, and you thought that this kind of transparency was good. I do commend you because I know that you have worked directly with some of your constituents. We found out, as we talked with you, that you had helped 18 people with loan modifications and that you were willing to contact the servicers. As you know, there are those who tell us that we shouldn't be doing any of this, but I think you and I agree that we should offer some assistance to the homeowners who contact us. I would like to thank you for that.
