Jeffery Yabuki: | Yeah, I know. That’s a great question. You know, one of the things that we’ve done over the years is we’ve looked at what’s in our portfolio and at times we’ve sold businesses. At times we’ve put them into joint ventures. We’ve done a variety of different things. We’ll continue to use that management philosophy with First Data. I think right now it’s premature to say that. I think we have to get to close and then at that point we’ll start taking a deeper look. |
Darrin Peller: | All right, guys, I think we should wrap it up there. Jeff, thank you so much for being with us. I appreciate it. Bob, thank you again for joining us, Tiffany. |
