   We've been very fortunate in the last four or five months to engage a man named Ole Bertram, who is a senior officer of Tele Danmark, or was - he retired from Tele Danmark - to operate that business.Ole has brought a whole fresh new approach to the management of it and much greater efficiency.The yields keep going up, and we're really pleased about the contribution that he's making.But basically, it's a passive investment for us.Daryl and I serve on the board of Hungarian Telephone, but neither or us - Daryl serves in a true advisory capacity to Ole, but my role is pretty passive.Any other questions?
