Thank you, Member Schwartz. Well, it's nice to think about this fall and just on visitors, but I'm thinking about businesses. Amount of money I've spent at Piston and Rudder, or I just ordered $80,000 worth of engines from Napa. So it does fall on businesses as well, and the local businesses will generate probably quite a bit more money than the visitors from out of town. Um, I'll still vote for it, right?
