This might be similar to the question I just asked, but in terms of your responsibility and others who have created this plan, who's responsible when the building comes down because of miscalculations in the, the steep slope, the proximity to the slope, the changes in the ground, the changes in the degree of slope, who's responsible for that when the building falls down? MR. PLOCKER: It's not within his testimony. MR. AFRAN: Call Mr. Plocker. CHAIRMAN BAGOFF: Let him just speak. MR. PLOCKER: I'm just saying, she's allowed to ask questions about his testimony. CHAIRMAN BAGOFF: Right. MR. PLOCKER: He did not testify as to any responsibility or liability based on hypotheticals. THE PUBLIC: Well, I guess it goes to the question, who wrote the report and who's responsible for the contents of the report. You testified that you wrote the report. You also testified that you didn't do those drawings contained in the report, that the architect did those and you relied upon those drawings
