SARAH KERNOCHAN:
Hi. There are a lot of people to thank and they know, they all know who they are, but we would like to single out three people for free airtime: Fred Underhill, our associate producer; Larry Silk, king of editors; and especially Max Palevsky, our executive producer.
HOWARD SMITH:
Who was really – well, Max was really more an executive friend. He really had faith in us and came through whenever we really needed it.
SARAH KERNOCHAN:
So thank you, Max. And also thanks to all the friends of the production who told us to keep this speech good and short.
