All right, let's get to it. Thank you for the PSA, Doug. We appreciate that. We are asking the question. Scoobull has comments. We've had Boris have comments. Is there a general resignation? He's gone. But to me, I think it's okay. I don't want to hear any more lip service. Scott Boris works for Terrick Scoobble. You get to make the decision.
