 I’d just like to remark that this has been a pleasant surprise. I think
Paul and I expected one of two reactions:


   1. No, we don’t need this kind of a document.
   2. Yeah, OK, no big deal, it’s simple enough.


Instead we are heading for an -04 that is really immensely better than the
-00. Thanks to everyone.
