Great podcast

Nice podcast, John. You guys covered a lot of ground in a short period of time. Unfortunately it sounds like we have a long way to go. There appears to be several gaps as well as a general lack of understanding from those who drafted the guidelines as they appear today. Look at it this way, at least you have something to work on for the next few years. Enjoy.
