I sure hope it doesn't always go that way, because that makes it into a political process. For the people involved, that's totally unfair. I meant to address that in my comments. We should have some type of disaster program in place that is in some way bankable or at least predictable for disasters. We have disasters across this country in agriculture almost every year in localized areas. That's really something that's missing as well, and it shouldn't be a political process.
