I regularly meet with them. I think I made my first phone call to them on the very first day I was elected into this role. I met with them and spoke with them throughout the weekend of the incident you are referring to, and also met with them since the incidents have been undertaken. I would love to tell you the day but days are blending into each other right now, however it has been since the incident.</text>
