This isn't, this isn't the first time this has happened, you know, but this is the environment where this is business as usual in Hollywood in 1997, I guess it was. And, uh, and nobody felt, um, the need to, uh, correct this or say anything about it. So this is, this is normal behavior.

And I said, you know, if this moves you, you know, please forward it along.
