RH: Yeah, Tom Campbell was a great guy, by the way... GF: He is... RH: He was a fantastic... GH: He's a good guy... Yeah. RH: Yeah, he's a good one. I've remembered who was pushing us to go to PTA it was Lorraine Inouye. ?: Yeah, Lorraine was — Senator Inouye and also Cindy Evans, of course, we see her often up there and talk to her about it — she's made a big point — I know — you mentioned earlier about some funding she gathered for us and was able to get that for the work being done on the west side and then Lorraine Inouye was up there — Senator Inouye was up there many times to talk about it — having a need for that. And then we also talked about enhancing, you know, cause there was something out there already — the course is a range — it's kind of off the highway at mile marker 16 up north side of DKI — I've been out there, used it — it's not much there — but could you enhance it and make it to be what you want it to be? I don't know. You look at it... ?: Can I ask a question on that with the Mile Marker 16? Cause I've been told DLNR's been out there checking hunting permits and it's like it's a gun range so why are they expecting hunting permits, you know, especially for retired police officers — we'd like to go shoot and there's no way for us to shoot on the island unless we get like a star protection agency to come out from Honolulu and go to Parker Ranch. ?: Yeah, I don't know much more than anything on Mile Marker 16 than I know where it is and I've been there and used it once. You have to have a hunting permit —you're right. KU: Mike and Gregory — I'm a high power commuter — I travel to — oh, sorry, my name is Kean, District 2 — I travel to Oahu and I shoot at the Puuloa Rifle Range — that's a naval base, I believe, for me to go and access the base to get on that thing — I had to go through a pretty extensive background check
