No, I was on the zoological society board and the people were good friends. And when their terms expired or whatever, I would urge them to put certain people on the board. And I think that they were professional enough to realize what we had to get done, as far as the makeup of the board goes. We’d been talking about a new zoo since Hurricane Betsy came through there in 1965, and put three feet of water over the zoo killed 250 animals. We knew we had to move the zoo inland. And so we talked about it for five years, and in the meantime, we tried to get our board straightened out, so they could put more pressure on our politicians. And 1970, they passed what they call a decade of progress bond issue in Metro-Dean County. And they put a part of it in the parks department.
