Omigod! We were there too, but on another civil matter! John and Ed thought we were there too for AP! I started to stick my head in after we were done but I thought the hearing was over. Sorry I didn't! I will be there to support Ed, John and anyone else who shows up! I was wondering why they were so glad to see us!
