Okay.
1:14:30
Just so you know, are two charter revision commissions right now, even more transparent not.
1:14:36
One, the speaker.
1:14:37
I didn't know about the speakers, I must admit.
1:14:39
Now I testified there.
1:14:40
And then we're gonna be testifying at the mayor.
1:14:43
So it's very crazy for the public even to understand this.
1:14:46
So you're not alone in the transparency problem.
1:14:49
On the public restrooms, wanted to say years ago, the problem was not only people worrying about the homeless, nobody wants one in their neighborhood.
1:14:56
So we had plans many years ago under Bloomberg and they went bye bye because he couldn't find a place to put them.
1:15:02
So it's thank goodness for your op ed, but it's endless.
