We're talking 1984.
It doesn't matter.
Yeah.
Look at all of these struggles.
I mean, how many documentaries have you seen in that timeframe where it's David versus Goliath?
They don't care.
You know, because they... Unlimited funds.
And my parents, again, after they... The principle of it, they wanted me to fight, which I completely understand.
But then after a while, I felt like I don't want to do this to you guys.
I want to get on with my life.
And that's what I chose.
I'm going to resign.
Wow.
Let's forget the lawsuit and let's move on.
Um, I was, uh, thank God I had a great team, but my, my parents and then, uh, loving friends that, um, believed in me obviously, and believed in my future.
And I just had to kind of like, you have no idea who you think you, you know, um,
And so it was like, I'm going to prove it to you.
