Totally.

And this is honestly part of the reason I wanted to go report this story in the first place, right?

Like I wanted to actually go look at some data centers.

And Ken and Carol offered to take me on a little tour of their corner of central Ohio.

All right, so tell me the plan.

Jeff, I don't know if you know this about me, but once upon a time, I lived in Ohio for a year and a half.

Best year of your life.

Well, it is where I met my wife.

And at first, the landscape, right, where we were, that landscape looked kind of like the rest of the state.

This to me is what it feels like driving across any part of Ohio.

It's like flat land, farm, trees, a little snow on the side.

But then, six or seven miles from Ken and Carol's house, complete change.

Then, a little ways down from there, another data center.

And then another.

And another.

Jeff, it was just miles and miles of this.

Sure.

It was all of these enormous...

like the most plain rectangular buildings you've ever seen.

They were like gray or tan or black and they were football fields long.
