Q. Well people might be ready for Hillary to be President.<br />

A. That’s a different question. I don’t know.<br />

Q. They know that name.<br />

A. Yes that’s not responding to an unknown that’s for sure.<br />

Q. Do you see yourself getting more involved more <strong>with</strong> water issues You’re<br />

obviously an expert.<br />

A. It’s interesting. I was on the Board for twelve years and didn’t really give any<br />

serious consideration of running again. I felt like that’s enough. I did this long<br />

enough. When I ran for the Board, I thought I might run for something else some<br />

day because I have the same name as the big pink building and I can get<br />

elected. I don’t think that is the case. I don’t think I’ll run for anything else. I<br />

don’t like partisan politics. The Board worked well for me. The other thing that I<br />

really liked about the Board is it was all substantive. There’s no sort of folderol.<br />

You don’t have to pretend to be interested in a bunch of issues that you’re not<br />

really interested in. It’s a very limited purpose governmental entity and I felt like it<br />

was public service and I got to do something that was meaningful and worthwhile<br />

and was very challenging. It’s very complex and interesting stuff.<br />
