Correct. Or frankly, we didn't think about it, I guess. It's brought to our attention and that's good too. But there are other things in homes that are important, like fire detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, detectors. To be honest with you, again, when, you know, years ago, these never existed.

And then it becomes important, you know, to keep these detectors that you have installed up to date, you know, changing the batteries and all these types of things. So, again, good, but Another level of safety that obviously was implemented because there were things that happened that we prevented.

They have an actual safe room that's really highly protected from invasions, etc. So again, safety, but due to circumstantial issues that I think we have to take into consideration as well. Sheridan, you brought up the issue, or not the issue, but I guess the reason to be concerned if you have younger people in a home versus elderly.

Yeah, and you know, it's like, so for instance, in my generation, we didn't have, I don't think we even had them, these little electrical protectors where you put them in electrical outlets. But then, you know, when my wife and I had children, yes, we did. And going forward, you know, grandchildren. Yes, they have them. And so it's kind of like almost like a generational shift in safety.

It's like when you like like when I go in for like a physical, you know, my physician will ask me or even, you know, one of the nurses, do you feel safe at home?

Well, what do you mean? Do you have, you know, do I feel safe because, you know, I'm not in, there's no abuse going on in the house? Or do I feel safe because there's grab bars in the showers? Or do I feel safe because there's no lead-based paint in the house? Do I feel safe, you know, all these things that, reflect on the word safe.

But yet, it's important for all of us to keep them in mind, for sure. So I, some things that you don't necessarily think of, but it's important.
