Despite the withering look I got from the chair, I'm thinking not just about the functioning of our committee but really about the witnesses who may be coming from a long distance. I would just ask our clerk to make sure they understand the limit on time if they are coming from a far distance or they're putting themselves out, to make sure they understand how much time they have in total. Otherwise they might be disappointed.
