If you are, if you're not, then you don't deserve to vote.
So I just can't imagine why that we can't get that done.
Now, one of the things that we've gotten a lot of questions about and a lot of concern about and this legitimate concern are data centers and data centers are these huge.
I'm sure you've heard of these huge warehouses.
I mean, they are multiple football fields long and inside of them are all these computer servers that.
that are collecting and storing and computing all the data that you and I put up.
Like, for example, if you order anything off of Amazon, for example, which most people do in the country now,
And you can go in there and you look at your order history.
Well, that order history that's in there is stored somewhere in a data center, all right?
And that data center, which is kind of sort of like the cloud when you hear about the cloud, okay?
That data center stores the data
and then it retrieves it for you so that you can know what you've ordered in the past and maybe what you want to reorder, something like that.
So it's something that we all use every day, but it is just something that has created a lot of concern.
In fact, one of the questions we got from Julie is, what are data centers and why are some people up in arms?
Well, we just explained to you about what they are, but the reason they're up in arms is because that
In order for data centers to run, just like your own computer, you have to plug it in, it requires a lot of electrical power.
And it also requires these huge computers, as you know, can run, they have a motor inside of them so they can get hot.
And that's why your computer, your laptop, like I'm using right now, has a little fan inside the computer that keeps it cooled down.
Well, they have to have that type of scenario in these big warehouses.
And they'll use water as chillers, okay?
