I don't think, Professor, correct me if I'm wrong, I don't think we actually posted this one on the iDriveSoCal.com…

Clinton Quan: That is correct. We did not post it. It was something that I just planned a spur at the moment.

"...everything danced up. Everything had some kind of aftermarket stuff going on."

Tom Smith: Okay. Next year you will be able to go to this based on the events page, based on the newsletter for your newsletter recipient.
