Commissioner johnson. I if it works for the full claurnld ill be happy to move it but the candle stick park and to others in general we do take seriously written Public Comment and we integrate that into the thoughts of a project sometimes actually more helpful to have things in writing than the two or three up here were able to actually take it and think how it sdpraths into a project i think we had this situation with individuals that maybe impacted by the project try to shape our scheduled around vacationed and other accommodating schedules unfortunate thats not the way did works nice to doing everything we can but we dont work that way and no matter which way the vote goes.
