Oh yeah Dave, I forgot to tell you one thing. I couldn't remember when I was talking to you earlier. But I got to tell you about the Pittsburgh sports fans. Like the Pittsburgh Steelers in the Pittsburgh NHL hockey team, their shirt colors are black and gold. So everything in sports oriented, particularly the Steelers in the NHL hockey team, everything is black and gold. Well in the 1970s I used to work for Control Data and we used to work on Cray computers. Cray built the first, Seymour Cray in Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin built the world's first supercomputer. And it was really big and really, really fast. But anyway, the funny story is the supercomputers were called Cray. Cray, C-R-A-Y, Seymour Cray was named after. And they had the Cray 1, 2 and all that stuff like that. And they had millions of dollars. But anyway, Carnegie Mellon I think it was, an engineering school, bought a Cray supercomputer. And I think this was in the 70s, might have been the 80s. But this guy got this multimillion dollar supercomputer and they got it from Cray computer and it was an engineering wonder to be in Pittsburgh. One of the rules that the University of Pittsburgh or Carnegie Mellon, whoever owned it, gave to Cray computer when they built it, it had to be black and gold. So they built this huge supercomputer and the outside of it was black and gold, the city's colors. Anyway, good night Dave, back to you.
