Yeah, downtown Portland, I like the city, always have. I just don't agree with the politics, but it's perfectly safe, in my opinion, to go downtown Portland right now. There's nothing going on down there. Don't believe the national news that they like to sensationalize everything. The local news all they're showing is the building down there where the ISIS is. And there's a few people, and there will probably be more. But just stay off of south McAdam Avenue, which is a couple miles south of downtown Portland. But you can go down to downtown Portland, it's fine. I wouldn't be afraid to go down there. I don't go down there, but I wouldn't be afraid to right now. But, yeah, I don't know what's going to happen. Like I say, I don't know whether they're going to park all of these National Guard vehicles and how they're going to take care of all these people. There's a big restaurant down there, the spaghetti factory. They've got a big parking lot, so maybe they can take that parking lot over and park the vehicles in there. It's only about a block away from where this ISIS building is. I used to, when I was retired, I used to take care of a manhole right there in front of their building when I was in the sewers. We had a guy that had an enzyme package or something, and once a week I'd have to go down there, take the manhole cover off, and take the old bag out and put a new bag of enzymes in there. They were having trouble, I think, with the restaurant dumping stuff they shouldn't have or something. I don't know. Anyway, I don't do that anymore. I'm retired 21 years, so I just let them do whatever they want to do down there. That's generally the way it goes. Anyway, KV-7, KVW.
