Well, Vince, before I was so rudely interrupted when you came out, I was about to say that these three men, these fine competitors, are going to join forces as one half of a six-man tag team at King of the Ring.

Let's go back to Harvard for a minute, when they have almost a $53 billion endowment. Now, there's a small tax that's on endowments that's currently in place. It's about 1.4%. And that's on universities that have at least 500 students that are on tuition. So that's at about, I think, $500,000 per student is kind of the barometer they look at before the taxes start.
So this is really going to increase that. But it's about two million dollars per pupil that gets, you know, sort of way before the taxes start. But it's a ton of money if you look at it. Sure. It is going non-taxed, even though universities will say we use most of our endowment for student aid and for research. Well, don't you think that's what they should be using those endowment dollars for?
Well, we'd like to see them do the things we've asked them to do in the letter. We would like for them to let us come in and sit with them and see exactly what they're doing. Show us what you're doing. They're doing a lot of talk about the things they're doing.
