Yes, Joe. The way I read this there are five vacancies and five applicants [Dale Beland, Conrad Anker, Bob Julian, Dawn Hayes, and David Weaver] (that's correct) and absent me hearing anything differently why not just appoint all five of them (that's what I would suggest, I think this would make a very strong expert board, we've got people from the planning community, from the attorney community, from the banking community we've some people hear with some real expertise that can help us out). So moved.
