Yeah, we've got the, basically the same as your EAS alarm system, but we've got the Australian Emergency Broadcasting System. And so what they do is there's a government thing where they do essentially the same thing as what you guys do in America. Like, I broadcast the emergency warning things. And we have different apps run by our, because I'm in New South Wales, we have the RFS or Rural Fire Service, and the, that we have, they're a volunteer group who monitor this app, so their control tower and control rooms in Sydney, through the app, they'll, so say they've been called out to a fire, they'll page their crews, and then what the people in the service will, they can see who's got watch zones everywhere, and they can either send out a big, broad one to the people who don't have the app, or they can just send it out to the people who have the app installed, and like with the watch zone, and if it's in their watch zone, they'll send it out to their, like as a local one, or if it's a big emergency one, like they need to tell everyone to get out and evacuate the area, they'll just say, so that the, streaming, like the TV companies and radio stations and phone providers in the area, that you need to broadcast this message out over all the channels you've got, and over all the phone towers you've got in the area that they've provided. QSL? Okay, QSL, yeah, so I understand now the part about the first responders and having the app on the phone, okay, okay, yeah, so the integration in Australia seems to be the same as it is with the rest of the world now as far as the primary methodology for sending out an alert message to the general public goes, that's my takeaway there. So, alright, great, anything else to add?
