Hi Dee, Daniel
I have avoided taking any particular credit about the speech, because I
only listened to all those who had a say and summarized their issues. Then
I proposed a set of 3 issues per thread and the over arching issue of
trust.
To me, I dont see that I have done anything new.
The best I can do is to listen and pick out what I hear as consensus. And
stand by it
