So if that's the case, and if they don't have a choice, if that's the only place that they can live, I think it might be different.
Now, I'm not saying that we definitely should do that, but I think that the ethics are...
I think, somewhat distinct when you're talking about, you know, having a situation where people don't have the option of getting out of that situation, right?
You don't have a way to get away from the risk.

Oh, my God.
There's a lot to do.
There's a lot of things.

But throughout this, I sort of really struggled with like, okay, given what we know, what
is this a path we should be pursuing?
Like, is this the right thing to do?
And you're, you're, you're making a good point that like in the long run, we might have to, because we've got all our eggs in, in one, you know, planetary basket here.
So, um,
That's risky.
But the next question is, when?
What's the timeframe for this, right?
