And Dan and I always go back to that and saying how right he was.

And we didn't even fully appreciate how good a business it ultimately was, which we do now.

But anyway, so that went really well.

So we had the financing lined up.

He was open to receiving a proposition.

We put a proposal together and we presented it to him.

Then there was radio silence for a week.

We felt radio silence for a week is normal.

That's a big deal.

They're deliberating about it.

But then that became two weeks and three weeks and four weeks.

Totally normal to take eight weeks or seven weeks.

So six weeks into it or something.

I get an email back basically saying, listen, thank you so much for your proposal.

We're not prepared to move forward.

And something like best of luck with your future endeavors.

And it really had two lines, maybe a two and a half line.

At which point I picked up the phone and called this guy whom I had hit it off so well with.

And I said, listen, thank you for your email.

I mean, we see, David, can you elaborate a little further?
