>> thank you, chair haney. just with respect to time and the level of questions that i have, it was brought to my attention in the briefing with the b.l.a., there were a number of questions they could not answer, and, you know, with regard to many different aspects of this, particularly as it pertained to some of the real details of the overall contracts and of its history and so on, so i would request a two-week continuance so that we can work with the sfmta to dive deeper into these questions and the b.l.a., and to save some time based on our overall agenda today. so i would make a motion to just continue this for two weeks. >> chairman: thank you. i am good with that. mr. lee, i know you're here and prepared to make a presentation. is there anything that you want to say right now? are you going to be able to survive with two more weeks? >> good morning, supervisions, can you hear mow preparing. hearme? >> chairman: yes. >> i'm not familiar with any unanswered questions that they may have, and we've had long
