Thank you, Mr. Speaker. No, it is certainly not. I do not consider it a waste of money and I would be more than willing to meet. What I did indicate to the DEC was could I get some message back if they were interested and had agreement amongst themselves that we should meet on this subject, but I did not get word back from the DEC. I have met with the DEA directly, but I also need the cooperation, as the Member can appreciate, to meet with the DEC. I did send them a letter approximately a week ago, Mr. Speaker, because they were meeting on the weekend. I thought that would be a time that they may wish for me to come forward. There was a proposal to look at various possibilities, but the DEC did not indicate back to me to attend. Thank you.
