Shadee Elmasry – We really underestimate youth.

			We got a good number of questions
that came in from some high
		

			schoolers.
		

			But before we get going, as anyone
who's here, can they tell me if
		

			the sound is up or not?
		

			Alright, is good. All right? So we
have a good number of questions

they need real answers to
