Thank you, Randy, for that kind introduction. And many thanks to the Free State Foundation for your invitation. You have an impressive line-up today, and I am sure that it will generate some lively dialogue.
I’d like to wish everyone a belated happy New Year. It’s amazing how much can change in one year. For instance, if we had been meeting one year ago today, I probably would have been talking about how Congress was moving legislation to push back the digital TV transition deadline from February 17 to June 12.
