Look, Germans, use a blanket. Yeah, exactly.

Yeah, so I think this is also something very exciting to me. On a personal note, again, since I grew up in Illinois, and definitely my parents were not physicists, but science supporters, generically, is having Fermilab close to your house is...

just gives you an appreciation that things are dynamic and it, it really, you know, it makes you feel much more energetic about the idea that, Oh, I could do research or that, you know, research is happening and it definitely gives you a sense of, you know, excitement about it all. Um, so yeah, I also have this kind of agnostic approach that, oh, I don't really care where it happens.

I just want it to happen. But when you're close to it, you feel it. You really feel it like, oh, wow, there's an energy in the air that's not neutrinos. And you get excited, and it's just cool to be a part of it. So this is something that's really exciting as someone who's currently doing science in the U.S., is the fact that the U.S.

might want to re-enter the world stage of particle colliders is amazing. And I think this is very indicative, and this might be the spiciest thing I say, so... I think the styles of doing physics in the US and other places, um, Europe is kind of my biggest benchmark because of the people I interact with the most, but definitely the style of physics in Europe versus the US are very different.

Um, and I think in the US for better, for worse, we tend to be sort of the people that always want to make sort of wacky theories or just like make experiments measure things that they were not made to measure. Um, and just kind of be, yeah, quite frankly, a bit of the dreamer is that, yeah, maybe we hand wave a bit and we don't worry so closely about the 15th loop correction.

And, you know, we're a little bit sloppy, but the fact that that, you know, when opens up the possibility of like, Oh, let's get weird with it in science, I think is something that I really like about the, the U S atmosphere and physics. Um, So if a place like China or CERN wants to go ahead and do a machine that's like the FCCEE or the CEPC, then that's great.

And the precision physics and really measuring the standard model, I think that that's very in touch with the science goals of those communities. But then doing the weird project that's like, well, can this even work? Do we know what we're doing? This is such a far off shot. And then...

maybe it'll happen to me is very in line with sort of the American ideology towards doing physics, especially looking for new physics. So that to me is kind of the ideal outcome of everything is that countries that are much better about keeping track of factors of two and pi go for the precision machine and then the Americans pool the resources to put a muon collider on their soil.

But of course, all of these projects are international, and international collaboration is not only encouraged but required to pull any of this off. So where it ends up is not zeroth order, but it definitely has an impact.
