It was very generic, looking forward to working with the administration and really we could not expect too much in terms of commitment because they have very little to go on themselves in terms of what these trade policies might be. We have had some change of mind where they talked about keeping jobs in the us and doing less in texaco for top any us saying it is windowdressing, it is not a big shift in policy. Not at all.
