Sure it is. But my point--I was getting to the point. The point is, all USAir employees are saying, ``Let British take over,'' and all Delta Airline people are saying, ``Don't do it.'' This one has to be resolved by Government because of the routing and all of that. It's being negotiated now, and I'm not hiding behind this. But it would be most inappropriate for the President to take a position on it while the Department of Transportation is handling it. It will come to me. Everything does. And then you have to say, ``I'm for this,'' or against it. But on the other one, I just don't believe that the Government ought to intervene in all of these things. Mr. Nigut. All right, thank you, sir.
