Yes. The problem is I โ€“ sometimes when I see like a list of preposterous scientific projects that have gotten big grants, I read it and I think I โ€“ They all sound preposterous, but I don't know. Some of these things are likely to have had a good explanation, and it just is not apparent in the sound bite. And some of them are every bit as preposterous as they seem.

And so I can't look at a map like that and say what I would expect if the system was healthy. So I'm cautious about it. I don't think the system was healthy.

But we have to be suspicious also of our understanding of how a properly functioning system would graph in something like that. So that we don't overrun the train station when we get there.

The 8 program is a program that gives advantages to disadvantaged people. And at some point, that ability to use the 8 program was granted to Alaska Native corporations.
