Hey, everybody, Dr. Chris Martinson back here with you for another scouting report. Remember,

so I just talked about how the markets are all sort of like markets now, right? That's with

double air quotes for anybody just listening to this. I'm holding my fingers up and going, quote,

quote, markets. All right. So why do I think that, you know, I have all this data, but I'm going to give you

a little bit more around this because it's really a central point. It's actually very, very important

that we get this right. And the reason is, is that if, if I'm just putting my volume up tiny bit here,

Your fuel gauge is telling you you have twice as much fuel as you actually do, right?

So we have bad instrumentation out there and chief among them is price information. If your

price information is corrupted, you can't balance risks out. You have no idea where real supply and demand is. And most
