importance as well, but they can help us build much much faster and You know the Trump administration are very committed to taking away the permitting challenges and I think For construction and approval and I think that's where the red tape has really slowed things down So, you know, there's been desire but there's been so many people who need to stamp the page and I think there are tremendous efficiency Palantir, of course have
