"I think 2 mils of our 2% of $16 billion is somewhere around $320 million. So I just need to, I guess, get some of these numbers adjusted. And I'd rather, Mr. Chairman, have us look at the aggregate dollars and going to the state, and then if there's a split to the municipalities like we do with our oil tax, we look at the whole, you know, the portion that goes to each borough and then a portion that goes to the state. But if we don't use the aggregate dollar amount, we get our tax modeling off."

So the— I think 2 mils of our 2% of $16 billion is somewhere around $320 million. So I just need to, I guess, get some of these numbers adjusted. And I'd rather, Mr. Chairman, have us look at the aggregate dollars and going to the state, and then if there's a split to the municipalities like we do with our oil tax, we look at the whole, you know, the portion that goes to each borough and then a portion that goes to the state. But if we don't use the aggregate dollar amount, we get our tax modeling off. I'm just trying to keep things synchronized because it just appears 20 mils or some— there's quite a bit of spread here and I need to get that clarified because I'd like to get a good handle on the marginal difference with the current tax structure versus whatever volumetric numerics we're going to use in dollars.
