How are you feeling about this? Because like we were around in 1976, I have memories. I'm bitter like a lot of people because 1976, the bicentennial, that was a party that was a year long party. I mean, everybody full of, you know, bicentennial spirit. There was all this talk about, you know, the Founding Fathers and, you know, you know, the Nixon resignation rather than impeachment, the whole Watergate scandal. (33:39–33:44)
