Mr. Sofer. —if someone could present to him the critical piece of data or evidence, if you will, that we're talking about. Without doing it, we're stuck in this world where everybody is speculating.

Mr. Glabe. And it's not his testimony, as I've heard it, that he did not pass along a purported memo in the manner that other witnesses may have described. I believe it is his testimony that he does not have a specific recollection of doing so.

We're hopeful that there will be some documents coming from the National Archives that would include this memo, and, at some point, we may very well want to bring Mr. Patel back and ask him about that. As of now, we are showing our cards and telling you exactly the basis of the question.

Mr. Sofer. Understood. The last thing we want to do is come back.

I understand.

Mr. Sofer. And we want to get this done today, so—

Mr. Glabe. There's no question—

Mr. Sofer. —I would hope that that wouldn't happen.

Mr. Glabe. Yeah, there's no questions we haven't answered, and it is our intent to answer all of your questions.

The Witness. Carry on.

Mr. Sofer. Well, then let's go on.

Okay.
