Most of the people, all but one or two up here, our physicians, are physicians, and responded immediately, getting off the train and tending to those that were wounded. We were the first off of the train and we were able to get to two people lying on the ground. There was one gentleman who was walking wounded. Obviously you have heard that , there was a fatality. I will tell you that this group of doctors here and other members of congress in the house and the senate worked together as a team with the Emergency Medical Team that came in to try and do everything we could for these people at a terrible time. I think that we were blessed in many ways to have the opportunity to try and help people, and hopefully at least one life was saved today.
