Tightens up as they say. Hi, everybody. This is Rick McKenna. I'm from the state of confusion, also known as New Jersey. And I wanted to just say a couple things about this meeting. But the the first thing is I thought the timing was perfect. I mentioned it to Orly. Normally, meetings are maybe a little too compressed together, but here we had enough time to digest and to process as we go through. And I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who's been so kind to me over the years. Alright? God bless. Thank you. Thank you.
