Id like to thank our panelists very much. As rob mentioned earlier, the exercise series we have put on and started 3 years ago has really become, for the department of Emergency Management and we hope for the military, this foundational piece of the fleet week humanitarian exchange. Its been a wonderful way for us to Work Together on some of these common issues and figure out how our agencies are all going to integrate. I think the time and effort that has been expended by both the military planners and also the civilian planners is definitely going to be bearing fruit in years to come when something happens.
