So hopefully this guy wasn't all talk. "Still, dontcha think announcin' this in the middle of th' city's gonna get ya in trouble? Not that I can't appreciate someone who's got guts, but...I'd like a little more info b'fore I commit ta anythin'."

Well, the only way to deal with this type and get that information was to encourage them. "Let's hear it, then; what's th' big plan?"
