When You're Going To Try And Have People Talk In A Room And Actually Reflect Life As We Know It And Have People Recognize Themselves And Their Own Street And Their Own House In It, Well Then You're Aiming For The High Country And It's A Much Bigger Gamble.

And The Good News Is, If You're The Boss, If It Ain't Good, You Don't Use It. You Just Cut It Out.
