Yes, Let's go to the WRD talkline. We'll talk to Ralph in Duncan. Ralph, are you out there in traffic, man? 01:33 Ralph are you there? Oh Ralph is gone now. Sorry about that Ralph. Alright so, okay. 01:39 We have a state legislature that does a lot of stuff. 01:47 that we don't know about. They vote on a lot of things that we have no idea what, and all of these things affect us on a daily basis. And rarely are they for the common good. oh Now, I've been telling you to get in touch with your state legislators. I had a couple of people do that last week and that was fantastic. We got one bill put on hold at least, we got another one uh maybe killed. 02:17 But when you call your state legislator, especially the slimier ones, and you know the ones I'm talking about, they're obvious, they've got slime on them. When you call them, there's a little trick that they like to play on you. So if you say, this is Charlie James from Greenville, and I want you to vote no on House Bill 5071. Oh. 02:46 Well, what's wrong with House Bill 5071? That's what they'll ask you.
