Mr. Chair, thank you.
Let me first thank the witnesses for being here.
I have a comment. I usually don't, but with this one, Dr. Bonta, you have taken me back five decades to when I was a little child, and I remember my grandparents in Lebanon and elders and people there telling me that they could talk to birds, and birds talk to them, and as a result of that, there's a whatever. Thank you for that testimony. It's not something that we hear about in this country, or certainly in the milieu that we are in, but I actually now remember that it does exist, and you have information on that. I think that's very valuable for us to hear.
Go ahead.
