:36:00
I started working
when I was seven years old,

:36:04
sweeping the beam house floors
for my father,

:36:07
which he swept for his father
when he was seven years old.

:36:13
- Which my boys...
- I know. They swept it, too.

:36:16
Please answer the question I asked.
Silicone and trichlorethylene.

:36:20
These two chemicals mixed together
:36:22
are used to waterproof leather,
are they not?

:36:27
I asked you a question,
Mr Riley - again.

:36:33
Please inform your client that he's
obligated to answer my question.

:36:48
Let the record show
that the witness

:36:51
emptied a glass of water
on my conference table.

:36:54
What exactly do you intend to say
to me by pouring water on my table?

:36:59
It's how silicone
is used to waterproof leather.

:37:03
I'm answering your question.
:37:05
It's poured on,
like you poured water on my table.

:37:10
Yeah. Correct.
:37:11
So some of it must
spill off the leather,

:37:14
Iike the water spilling
off my table...

:37:17
and onto my rug.
:37:20
That's the part I'm interested in.
:37:24
The spilled silicone
and trichlorethylene, sir,

:37:27
how you disposed of that.
:37:30
- I never once used TCE.
- TCE? Did I say TCE?

:37:34
I didn't say TCE.
:37:37
I said trichlorethylene.
:37:42
You said TCE -
:37:44
as it is commonly known...
:37:47
to those who know it.
:37:51
Mr Riley, would you mind if
I checked your statements today

:37:55
against your records - invoices,
purchase orders and formulas?

:37:58
No. Be my guest.
They go back...three years.
