Was it, was it, was it maybe, was it maybe fetter speed?
No, no, no.
I forgotten.
And, and like, it just rolls off the tongue.
I know, but I mean, nothing says cooling, nothing says cooling strategy, just quite like it.
Does it?
It, it, it was just a,
Well, more prescient than that was the fact that in 2004, it was so far ahead of AI in data centers.
And I just wanted to ask you, what was it that made you
kind of get into this so early on in this situation?
2004 is 22 years ago.
Well, that's an interesting point because I've spoken about how I got involved in controls and in cooling and things like that was because people were looking to replace mechanical vein control with variable speed drives and it allowed us
the ability to use those transducers to have some sort of cause and effect on what we were doing with cooling.
But most people back then saw closed control and HVAC as something that would be gone within a year or two.
Nobody was thinking about it as a marketable insight or something you could do.
I guess what you were saying there is that you were looking at this forgotten building and looking at one specific challenge for one specific area, and it just happened to migrate well into data centers.
I had this kind of theory that it was because your lecture theater in MIT or Berkeley was just too warm.
So you actually took a control strategy to cool that down.
But that's interesting because you came out of the academia or the academic background and you came straight into it.
Granted, we've spoken about the Fedderspiel controls part of it.
