If the connection is made to the topic of our study, that can be accommodated. If there's no connection made, I'll have to cut you off, and we will go on to a question that does pertain to the study.
If a witness in either part or all of their testimony isn't on topic, it doesn't give the questioners a right to stray from the topic of our study—and again, I've explained what the topic is.
Anyway, let's not get into a long discussion on this. We have stopped the clock. Let's go ahead with the witness, and just make that connection.
