Dan, what do you think of the $400 million in private placement notes? My other chat rooms see it as negative, but I really don't understand why. It moves the refinance from 2019 to 2023. I don't know what the terms are either.

I don't see pushing the debt out another four years as a negative.

The thing to remember is that leverage works both ways. Yes, SN has a lot of debt. However, if debt is used wisely and matched up with assets properly, it is OK. The further out the maturity date on debt, closer it gets to being "equity".
