Well, it's interesting. They become a tourist attraction in our city. But you just said people do a lot of communication, but not conversation. So I don't know if I'm going to take away Mo.

I don't know where the money came from, but there was a lot of money. I think that things were not happening as quickly as people wanted to see them happen.

I think I do mean a lot of the board of supervisors. And now this new mayor is getting a good board. I'm just so mad about it. People say, oh my goodness, your response to the pandemic was amazing.
