Good morning. The Count, as of this reading: eleven-and-eleven thousand, four hundred and twelve.

The Count holds.

Keeper Orrin Vell, Count Reader for this cycle, offers the following note, entered into the record by his own hand and read here at his request:

The Count has been eleven-and-eleven thousand, four hundred and twelve for three mornings now. Before that, it was eleven-and-eleven thousand, four hundred and eleven. Before that, it was eleven-and-eleven thousand, four hundred and twelve again. No entry accounts for either movement. I have read the number each morning as I received it. I want the record to reflect that I am not certain, any longer, what I am reading when I read the Count. I am not saying it is wrong. I am saying I do not know what it would mean for it to be right.

The entry has been received. The Civic Bulletin Service makes no amendment.

The Count, again: eleven-and-eleven thousand, four hundred and twelve.

Quiet Hour follows.
