Number four, I told you about the acts of nature.

And then, of course, number five is technology.

They all have great implications.

Technology can greatly reduce, can greatly improve productivity.

And if those productivity creates incomes and so on, it can help greatly.

And similarly, productivity, the use of AI and other ways can be used for war or can be used for other purposes.

So that is the cycle.

So now as we come into it, we see these things happening.

They cannot be, should not be looked at individually.

In other words, in focusing something like Iran on the war with Iran, we can lose sight of the fact that while it's very important,

It's part of a world war.

In other words, there are sides, China, Russia, Iran, and other countries, Korea, North Korea, and the like.

And then there are other sides to that, and that there are conflicts.

And so...

The implications that this has are very profound.

I was just in Asia for about a month meeting with different kinds of different world leaders and so on.

And the implications of what is now happening with Iran and the United States and so on are very profound for that world order.

And we can, I'm sure, talk about it.

So thank you for letting me get that picture out.

And we can now zoom in on whatever you want to talk about.
