And this is the A3KX. And just before I move on to a quick comment to what you just mentioned too, Scott, about China syndrome and nuclear reactors. People sometimes ask whether a nuclear reactor can blow up like a comet bomb can't, simply because of the material we use for the core on the reactors. They're using more 238, U-238 than 235. Whereas the high-neutrophy of U-238 doesn't produce neutrons and facilitate nuclear reactions the same as 235, so it has a slower rate. But you can still get some tremendous heat from that. And if you get enough buildup of heat from uncontrolled reactions, yes, it will get hot enough that it can burn in the crust of the earth. That's the theory behind the China syndrome, which is where the name comes from. Whereas a nuclear bomb using 235 enriched by uranium or plutonium, once you have a reaction that becomes uncontrollable, then what could reach the capacity of a critical mass, supercritical mass, then not much you can do about that. Then there is an explosion. There's just two different materials that are used for different purposes.
