[laughter] listen, lawrence, i will put my money on you being able to not only explain this but make sense of it, and have a plausible theory for all of it so i m eager to see what you have to say this evening. it s one of the things that i know will sound good while i m saying it. i don t want anyone to think about much after i say it. okay?
