Okay. Before you all run out of here, the chair would like to make a few comments--it's my prerogative as chair--and other members may wish to add to this.
This has obviously been a difficult time. We have finished, and I would like to thank all members of the committee for helping me out, because there were some times when I needed help. I do appreciate all that help.
However, there are others who we should thank, and this is going to take a while, so hold off your applause. It's like the end of a movie, you know, when they list all those things. This is what this is--the credits.
First of all, I certainly couldn't have been up here without the clerk, Miriam Burke. I want you to give her a special hand.
