I think I said that publicly when I was in Florida on Tuesday--was it Tuesday I was down there? But when I was there he was standing right next to me, and we did talk about that, yes. I think we've had a good, cooperative relationship. I heard some local officials who were somewhat, well, not somewhat, quite critical. But I understand that. These people have been up all night. They've been worried about their constituency. In this case it was a commissioner. They're wondering how their people are going to get fed. So I can understand tempers flaring. But I don't want to contribute to that. We want to move forward here.
