Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I also think that in a lot of the discussions people were recognizing the contractual aspect of the basis. You're looking at elevation, you're looking at cleaning, and you're looking at inspections, at all of these other types of things that each individual grain company keeps unto themselves.
You can ask, and you can find out what it is going to be, but I think that when you take a look at the main issue as far as what the witnesses are saying, it's that people were saying, “This basis is wide because we cannot take your grain.” I think that somewhere in this conversation we have got to the stage where people are saying, “Look at how much has been lost because of this.” On those contracts that were brought in for November and should have been paid out here in March, there's been nothing lost. I think that somewhere people have this concept that this is what is taking place, other than the extra storage they have, as well as the interest that they would have there.
I think we're trying to put too many different aspects of this into this one component of the amendment. I believe we should be letting the market forces find their way through this.
