Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, gentlemen, for appearing here today.

I want to talk about futures. I'm wondering what effect the speculation of what's going to happen in climate is having on the price of oil and gas. I'm thinking in terms of what we witnessed with the hurricanes two years ago, and then the predictions that we were going to have the same things happening again, and that just plainly didn't happen. What effect did that have on our pricing, and what effect would that have on our industry?
