I am going to, I am going to take responsibility and, for getting those pandas. Because one day, when we used to do programs, we did a lot of, the Zoo Society used to do programs for the membership, at the Academy of Sciences in Golden Gate Park. You know, that big auditorium there, and that’s where we used to, we used to rent it and they used to, we used to put on educational programs, any kind of speaker you had, or films you wanted to show, that’s where we did it. And one, there was, I forget the program even, but we had a program going on there, and I looked around and I saw some of the guys from the Los Angeles Zoo there. And I said, “Geez, wonder what these guys are doing here?” So I, when the thing was over, I went over to them, you know, so we started talking, I said, “What are you guys doing here?” He says, “Well we’re getting, did you know we’re getting pandas from China, in honor of the Olympics?” I said, “No,” I said, “I really didn’t, that’s terrific.” You know it was, as far as I was concerned. And the guy says, “You know,” he said, “you should try to get them, because they’re just gonna go back when they’re finished with us. You should try to have them, you know?” I said, “Oh,” I said, “we’ll never be able to get them.” And he said, “Well, how do you know until you do it?” I said, “Yeah, you’re right there.” So I said, “I’m gonna, you know, I’m gonna do it.
