we failed our customers in san bruno. while an apology alone will never be enough, actions can make pg&e safer. and that's why we've replaced hundreds of miles of gas pipeline, adopted new leak detection technology that is one-thousand times more sensitive, and built a state-of-the-art gas operations center. we can never forget what happened in san bruno. that's why we're working every day to make pg&e the safest energy company in the nation. welcome back. happening right now, i want to show you a live look from the live desk at the westminster bridge. there with us, the images a little hard to see but this is coming in from london, and you can see hundreds of people out there on the bridge right now. they are holding hands in honor
