In a moment, we'll open up the floor to a few questions."
He starts clapping, and the audience follows his cue. As they do, he leans in close to you, and mutters, "Not smart."
Still, glancing around the room, you guess that the reaction to your honest words, hastily delivered as they were, is not wholly negative. Perhaps they have caught the imagination of one or two journalists.
