Mr. Chair, would you consider having meetings with Mr. Walsh tonight and first thing in the morning and maybe reconvene tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock or 11 o'clock?
I'm not in the position of having to make airline reservations to go home, but I see a lot of people around the table who have to travel. If we could deal with this tomorrow morning or late morning, they might be able to go back home early tomorrow afternoon.

I think you can decide by yourself. You don't need anybody else to coach you.

I will tell the committee that I intend to work at this as diligently as I possibly can, starting right away. If I come to a conclusion early, I will reconvene the meeting as quickly as we can and we can proceed if we have quorum.
Am I wrong on that? All right, help me out. I can do the best I can. Right now what I can tell committee members is that we will reconvene tomorrow at 3:30.

If I may suggest, you can't bring it back in earlier by deciding tomorrow at 10 o'clock that it'll be at 11 o'clock, because people are going to be travelling, and so it's going to be 3:30.

Okay, is everybody clear on that?
We're adjourned until tomorrow at 3:30.
