Interesting you landed on that last moment too.  I backed the video up acouple 
times just to listen to that last sentence or two.

There came the mission statement. The why. 

Is way too packed a sentence to transcribe from memory now.  But there it was.  
It's what it's all and what they are all about now right there.  Was not 
exactly about the celibate or married Tony by the end in example but to 
principled sentiment right at the video end.

In watching and knowing some of it, i give the guy some lot of credit.  He is 
doing a lot of stuff with what all he's been given, but doesn't really seem yet 
a leader in a classic way yet.  Possibly doesn't have the authority yet to do 
it.  Obviously academic but just not necessarily a leader yet.  Not real good 
at simply saying 'this is what we are about, this is where we are going & this 
is how we are going to get there'.  Seems instead spends most his time arguing 
a case hoping the merits will conclude the proposition.

I hope the best for him,
-Buck
