Iodine to space make city is not the last one. [laughter] but to be clearer that carter is animated or of assessed at dont think that is the bad thing. The world is of better place i dont question that for a moment. But even approaching 90 years old has no indication to lets up.

[laughter] i first remember him as a child in a blackandwhite fuzzy television, seeing this odd man. He was on the ticket with general eisenhower. There was some problem of taking money from this secret funds. He was blaming his daughters dog. And i thought, isnt he interesting. Well, he never stopped being interesting.
