MR. FRATTO: Yes, I think it'll be a good opportunity to get a review of what we're seeing in the economy today, both in the real economy -- I think I mentioned in the gaggle this morning that we're getting down to the last days of the stimulus checks that have gone out. So maybe we can get -- the President will have an opportunity to get a little better reading from Secretary Paulson and his other economic advisors.

We're going to be at the Energy Department. That's no -- that's by design. We want to be there to talk about what's going on with energy markets and oil and to -- and the opportunity to help bring down prices and increase supply here domestically. So the President will have a chance to talk about those issues, also the Outer Continental Shelf and refinery issues that you heard him spoke about -- speak about not too long ago. So it'll be a good review, but they'll certainly focus on energy.

Yes, Kevin.
