Thank you Josh. Greg was mentioning his brother-in-law's boat being sold and I'm just wondering because I remember Greg telling us a story about a boat that had either been inherited not by a family but by getting a house or something and it had a unusual prop system on it and maybe not necessarily legal except for the age of it. So I was just wondering if that was the boat that they were trying to sell or if that was a different boat but we'll find out next go around. Okay, yeah, well to go to the thing that Ron had said, you know, back in the 60s they came up with an international treaty about space and about who owns or doesn't own and who can't own but you know that was back in the 60s when a whole different power brokerage was there and we had the Americans, we had the Russians, we had the Brits and then maybe some of the European countries but now with China being an up-and-coming force in the world they didn't sign on to that and I bet you they would have something to say about that. And it's going to be whoever gets there first because you know the old rule, he who, the possession is nine-tenths of the law, that was what I was trying to think, possession nine-tenths of the law and it's going to be whoever gets there first is going to be definitely in charge of what's going on there until more countries or more companies get up there and then there'll be a race to see who can create the most, the quickest in order to have the power to make the decisions so it's going to be a mess. I can kind of see where it could be, it could be a real mess but I just hop on around to at least see part of it and oops, got to grab one just a second. All right, yeah I think that's it. Well and I also agree with Gray, whoever does end up initially being in ownership of it or being in control of it after a while, you know 50, 100 years, 150 years, I think they're definitely going to break off because you get that many people being that far away from earth and being there for that long, they're going to get the independent feeling kind of like how we did here in the United States and how it is everywhere new colonies go out and they create something and they build something and then they start resenting the fact that the people on the other end of the leash are actually on the other end of the leash and they'll say yeah you guys will still be friends but we're going to go our own way so I think that's eventually what would probably happen. All right, back to KJ5 IRQ N9OFU.
