Brilliant. There we go. So we've been working on, the commission has been working on the senior needs assessment. And The survey itself is closed online and receiving the paper copies. To date, we have about 1,000 total, so received just over 700 online and then just shy of 300 in-person paper copies. And also the nurses are, Mallory and one of our nurses is finishing up tabling at the library. They were at Mission Library last week and they are at the Northside Library Next week, I believe. And they are taking a few copies and talking to people if there's anybody out there that has comments that they want to provide. So we wanted to kind of try and, you know, hit some different areas. So it's not over yet.

Unknown 7:25

So we're not receiving, asking people to online, but we're doing our own kind of little pockets of outreach where we might have missed some people.
