[laughter] one of the members as pointed out in the photograph was chuck schumer, someone you all know and has a tremendous passion for israel. The bottom of the house in this living room area and we made a bed. I tried to get him to say a hail mary and he made me say the shema. We tried to cover all the bases and we did.
