Okay. Great. And then the other comment was that those three paragraphs at the end I feel like those should be at the very beginning of the policy. I feel like those paragraphs are very powerful. They're very well put. They seem very in our language and they literally ground everything that we're going to say in all these points. Yeah, I agree with that. Okay. I like that. Move the last three paragraphs to the top. Got it. Thank you. Okay. So anything else? We need to make a motion to bring it back. Oh, we hadn't made the motion yet so we're good.
