Reply #15: In other words, they DID know what Nico was trying to ask. [View All]

Nico shouldn't have been asking anything. He was obviously in over his head in that situation. He should have known the Commissioners would be hostile to him and he should have had someone else who is more experienced at dealing with highly skilled politicians asking the question.

That said, I'm certain they heard his question. They simply used his ineptness as an excuse to pretend like they didn't know what he was trying to ask.

And THAT said, a real pro would have thanked him for the question, assured him that it's a good one, and then they would have told him that the Commission will look into his concern and because of the importance of that particular question, make sure that it is addressed in their fnal report.
