I'm looking at the numbers, and you see the profit and loss statement, and there are the assets and liabilities. They are projecting that with their liabilities, they will not be able to sustain themselves. They say in 2026 they may—they may—go into a $700 million debt.

I have great difficulty with somebody making all kinds of projections, and I'm not the only one. The difficulty is that other people will look at the same numbers, the same information, and come out with obvious questions that lead it in a different direction, and that's what I was saying earlier. If I'm in charge, then I want it my way. If you're in charge, you want it your way. I always my leave my wife in charge so I don't have an argument.
That said, whoever brings something in, somebody else should have a very good head. That's why we have the loyal opposition in government doing that due diligence.
