You might actually offset the $4 million dollars he's looking for. It seems that it would be a small investment if he got $8 million back. That would help his deficit. I wasn't really sure about that, as I'm an auto worker, not a finance guy.
Mr. Rockel, I used to be an industrial electrician, so I get the wire thing. There were a couple times you said things about the apples. Just to crystallize that and make that clear to folks, you signed one heck of an agreement with, I think you said, Fortis, which said that you could actually do subdivisions. It's really unheard of for a rural operator, if you will, in the electrical system to be able to get a subdivision, because a line from house to house in a subdivision is exponentially shorter than a line from farm to farm in a rural piece.
I think you started to say things about your being like a shiny apple. Are you telling me that what's basically happening now is that the other utility companies are looking at you and saying that they'd love to pluck that subdivision back from you? And you can keep the wire out in the rural part, especially when you might be in areas where the customers are kilometres apart.
