Pretty good, I think. You know, I went all thru high school, graduated in the top5% and went to college a couple of years, but none of it prepared me for living in this world. I have learned more about why things are the way they are since becoming an investor than all of my schoolyears combined. There are a lot of incredibly smart people in the investment community that one can really learn a lot from. My biggest desire about visiting HLNT is not looking at a building or an assembly process, but meeting the people behind all of this. It is people that figure out things that is the real treasure. Henry Ford who designed the assembly line. One day, in meeting with his board, the board thought they should focus on building luxury cars for the wealthy. Ford looked at them and said, "Well boys, we can build luxury cars and live with the poor or we can build cars that the men working on our assembly lines can afford and live with the rich." Our problem today is we have a lack of good leadership. Where are the Henry Fords, the Andrew Carnegies, Thomas Edisons, George Westinghouses? I just heard a quote from one of those four-"If you believe you can do something, or if you do not believe you can do something," you are right. Where are the people to challenge and lead? "Give me liberty or give me death." I wonder if that is even taught anymore who said that. There are still movers and shakers, people that do more with their life than just talk. I believe we have that in the leadership of this company. Look at opening up the company for a visit by any shareholder. Truly amazing. My best to you, Jim
