Well, some of the most radical innovation are these remote systems where people just have to make things work. You know, you have no other grid to bail you out. But one person I was getting to is Diane Carpenter, who I believe, passed away, and so that's one person in the book where she was a last-minute addition. I think Gwen suggested it and Carolyn, who helped out with some of the writing. And so maybe Gwen, why don't you talk just a little bit about Diane Carpenter?
