Alan:         Thirty, three-zero.

                  And we have versions for all major operating systems.

Rose:         So you're saying that anyone can use this?

Alan:         Yes, that's right.

Mark:        Well, that's certainly impressive, but we'll have to see the complete lab report.

Alan:         I understand, but I'll have to get back to you on that request.

                  My partners will have to agree to release the technical information.

Rose:         Okay.

Mark:        We'd like to do our own independent testing.

Alan:         That's no problem.  We can help you set it up.

                  If the test results are good, are you interested in becoming partners?

                  It's a good opportunity.

Gary:         Hello, Elizabeth!   Today I'll be talking about confirming information during a negotiation.

                  In any business discussion, it is very important to confirm numbers.

                  This is especially true of numbers like thirty and thirteen, which are easily confused, as we hear in today's Business Dialog.
