I was and that's the reason I cautioned people for this one to be professional & have good questions. The 2000 Gore conference call did have some good questions posed but there were some others who were flushing toilets and other shenanigans that kinda spoiled it. Today's experience was different - after just starting and then getting two tough questions they shut it down.
I asked a question at the Gore conference, but it didn't work out too well, b/c I was working at a major liberal television network to begin with and was trying to be covert about the phone call, while prepping the question what he considered to be middle class in terms of yearly salary. I thought they would be screening calls and getting info before we asked questions, but it didn't work out that way and I was put on the spot to answer who I was and what outlet I was coming from, so I totally fumbled. I pissed off a lot of freepers that day, and just didn't bother posting to the thread.
