Great shots of Harold Feld, George Ford.
Harold was the only speaker to receive a standing ovation.
George was the only one heckled.
Harold spoke eloquently and with exuberance on the eve of the Passover holiday. Well done, Harold!
George was so insanely pro-business ("industry WANTS to meet the needs of its customers and does so best without regulation") that several in the audience shouted back.
THANKS FOR BEING THERE INDYBAY!
