A few other things, uh, I listened to Senator Rauscher talk about, um, the DNR ADA land transfer. Keep in mind that Senator Rauscher was talking about the ADA response to the public comments. All those public comments that you made, that everybody made to, uh, on this transfer, went to the DNR, and the DNR makes the decision on this, whether or not they're going to transfer it to ADA. Much of what you heard from AHFC is exactly the way ADA is going to do it. They may not be as elegant as of talking about it, but there's still any— AHFC doesn't know who is going to buy those houses.
