Thank you, Mr. You know, every— I'm looking at this and I'm just relating this. Okay, so you're asking for relief, or if they get relief in Texas and Louisiana for this, and yet we want to build an 800-mile pipeline through the harshest conditions in North America. And we have to be able to expect that we need some of those in order to build this line. I mean, these guys, their shipping costs are way way cheaper, everything to get there is cheaper, and we're gonna try to build this. So I mean, I'm like, these people are out, you know, are getting some breaks, yet we're sitting here arguing, should we give breaks to building our pipeline in the harshest conditions and, you know, maybe very limited building seasons of time when they have to put that pipeline in the ground.
