Events like this one warn us there is a virus loose within our culture. Too many of our young people are susceptible to it.

We also had the tragic events of September 11th, and I know for everyone that's caused us to step back, think about our priorities. It's a tragedy that affects us personally and affects our businesses. For the computer industry in particular, I think it highlights the importance of security, giving that far more importance than we've had in the past. We don't want our digital systems to have weaknesses that allow for tragedies, exploiting the weaknesses that are there. And so there's a renewed sense of focus on that.

It's been an excellent relationship for us. Their events are doing very well for us. When you go to a lot of these events it is a lot of families with two or three kids.

As the largest horse sale in the West, while it may be costly to us to postpone our events, it will be beneficial to you, our consignors and our buyers, to have the confidence in the health and safety of your animals.

We all have the mind-set that nothing's going to happen to us, we're not old and frail and we're not going to get old and frail. A phantom market's going to have to get involved with this, to softly introduce it.

Today is about the angels who are watching over us -- helping us to heal and helping us to remember.
