I'm paraphrasing him, so I know he's not listening. He's in Kazakhstan right now. It's like someone could put a create their own diesel generated plant over in Thomas Bay and bypass the grid. I was looking at it from a grid lens because I am of the opinion with Director Harber and the manager and SEPA that we would not spread ourselves thin in that regard, but there is some vulnerability there. And Stephen Harber, make sure you chime in if I'm speaking out of line at any point.
