And that some of the specific examples, and Andrew was bringing up some really incredible examples, you know, you could almost talk about how those examples applied in any, you know, any geographic or political location. It's just that we have to talk about it on a bit more of a global scale because, you know, you look at the idea of Let's say we were talking about the 1970s.
