4:15 steny by pop to
4:19 questions

4:22 the most interesting space to for towns and
4:25 it was the last one rigged
4:28 up to
4:29 were love discussions about I lines that how you into the space
4:34 how we would make it to hear and what we ended up doing was actually creating
4:38 three separate spaces within the
4:41 they had Jay in Lee’s work a mountain and which was gonna be sent
4:46 in the middle of the road
4:48 we found it actually worked based this Britain’s allies payment
