Great. We have approx $2.3 million committed so far. Two more meetings today, but with potentially smaller donors (Stanley Gold, who's never given to a 527, and Laurie David, who ought to be a six-figure donor). 

Man did I kiss you ass to Beto and Ann. We all agreed that you're a great guy. Hope your ears were burning.
