Um, what I would like to see done here is to change a little bit of the language in this motion so that we cover data centers, period, and include in the moratorium numbers 1 and number 2 as part of this moratorium, but not lose sight of the fact that we need to have a moratorium on data centers, that everything, everything that falls under the word data centers.
