Mr. Chair, just to continue along that point—and please forgive me for engaging in a debate with you, which is really not my intent—on at least two occasions at this committee we have conducted a sort of straw poll so that everybody knew what we were getting into. Then, in good faith, we went forward on it. That's all I'm seeking, a straw poll, if you would allow it, Mr. Chair, before we move on to the formal approach, which you are quite correct in requiring from the rest of us.
