So as part of the discussions with folks, i think as the chair said, they are seeking control. Not for them, i dont think if city or mtc want to take control of this project.

Donald trump hadnt foreshadowed the possibility. Fair enough, but its unclear exactly what the president was trying to foreshadow in these remarks this morning. Is the summit still on . Were going to see what happens. Were talking to them now. It was a very nice statement they put out. Well see what happens. [ inaudible question ] well see what happens. It could even be the 12th. Were talking to them now. They very much want to do, wed like to do it, well see what happens. [ inaudible question ] i dont know anything about it. [ inaudible question ] john, everybody plays games, you know that. You know that better than anybody.
