to the last be it resolved clause, where I state the two questions there. Now I gleaned that from what's been in the media so far, what's been referred to as the blogosphere, together with what Mr. Strauss submitted to me yesterday. And from that, I've gleaned that these are the only two questions, legal questions, that the Board will entertain or concern itself with. Now you, of course, are free, based on the information I provided you yesterday, what you've seen to date, to supplement that if you feel that that's necessary. So I wanted you to know that again, this is your motion, your decision. I'm here just to provide you guidance and advice. But once you lock down these two questions, you know, we've pretty much locked ourselves down. And that's all that this Board's going to investigate. So I would just ask that you —ask you to take some time to think about what's been said so far and make sure that those are the two questions that you want —only, the only two questions, that will be asked. CHAIR: Now, is our motion satisfactory, or ASHIDA: - -Yes, I think it's satisfactory so far CHAIR: - -and the focus would be just on those two questions. ASHIDA: From the information that I've read in the media, from the information Mr. Strauss provided me, those seem to be the only two allegations that are really out there. CHAIR: Okay. So I'm fine with (inaudible). Are both of you ready? DILL: Yeah -- PRANKE: - -I have one question, Mr. Chair, I'm sorry— CHAIR: -- please PRANKE: - -all right. DILL: Mr. Chairman, at this time, do you want to clarify, for Mr. Lee Loy and the other parties involved, how we're going to arrange the witnesses— CHAIR: - -We need to DILL: - -okay— CHAIR: - -we need to vote on this motion first. DILL: Do you want to add to this motion the place that we're going to be holding this hearing? CHAIR: That is not necessary. 16
