They were more in line of the true public servant than some of these yahoos that didn’t want to raise taxes, and I dealt with that until the day I retired. Thankfully, I had no involvement. I say no, virtually no involvement in state government. State legislature had nothing to do with the zoo. And as I say that, I have to note that the three local governing bodies, the two counties and the city who appointed the Zoo Commission, they had no responsibility in the zoo. And it was a brilliant move on the part of somebody when they created the Zoo Commission in 1969. Because they had two appointees from each of the two counties and two from the city and one at large. So there’s seven members of the commission.
