Editor's note: Hanacek's question followed an incident involving an activist sitting near him, who was given the microphone and began to list various past industry situations and made numerous insinuations and claims, but never would ask the panel any type of question -- despite the fact that several opportunities were given for the activist to ask a question rather than continue to simply ramble on.
