00:14I've never been here before. I'm really looking forward to seeing the city. The longer I stay here with you,
00:20the less I'm going to see.
00:23That's one thing to keep in mind when you're asking your three-barrel questions that will take me five minutes
00:29to answer and her 25 minutes to answer.
00:33I want to thank you very much for putting the concert together and I think, you know, if you're putting
00:38something out tonight, you know, the thing to emphasize is that we're raising money and that money is going to
00:44be distributed to people that are in need.
00:46So that's the big focus.
00:51And you've probably aware of it in Australia in the last decade, we've been in a cycle. Fire to flood,
01:00fire to flood, you know what I mean?
01:01So we're getting hit with the same Australians there, you know.
01:082019, about three or four hundred acres of my farm, but, you know, I lost four cabins and a bunch
01:18of equipment and stuff like that.
01:20Nobody got hurt and everything was okay, but, you know, I've been personally involved in that sort of extreme event,
01:30you know, so I do have a great deal of sympathy for people that are affected by the flooding and
01:34that's why when it came up as an idea, I was definitely for it.
01:38It's a perfect answer.
01:41I want to add, I think, you know, we're all aware of the fact that in Australia, in the last
01:47decade, we've been through a cycle of incendi, incendi, incendi, incendi, incendi, and so on, and so on.
01:55Mi sembra che questa situazione di eventi estremi si stia verificando anche qui.
02:02Nel 2019, per esempio, io ho perso circa 300-400 acri della mia fattoria che sono andati bruciati, che sono
02:10stati colpiti da un incendi, abbiamo perso anche le capi di bestiame, delle attrezzature.
02:14Quindi, fortunatamente non ci sono stati danni alle persone, agli esseri umani, ma è un qualche cosa che ovviamente mi
02:20coinvolge, mi colpisce, sono particolarmente coinvolto in questa cosa e quindi quando è stata fatta la proposta ho immediatamente accettato
02:29e aderito proprio perché capisco la gravità e la serietà della situazione.
02:33Grazie.
