The E4GWN, I'm going to check Rosie in, she's in the other corner of the room sorting out our meds. Normally she does that Sunday night, but we went to a friend's place for supper yesterday. When we got home we were both a little bit over full and did not feel like moving around. So she left it until this morning, that's what she's doing now. As for electric cars, I don't think so, not yet. One of the things being is the nice warm winters we have, you know, and we do reach 40 below Fahrenheit and sometimes even colder. And of course your electricity to move your vehicle is also going to be your electricity to warm your vehicle. And I've heard that can cut down your cruising by as much as one third. So of course depending how cold it is. That's one of my biggest concerns. The other one, I don't know, battery technology, as good as it's become, people saying it's only going to cause less environmental footprint on the earth. I don't know, people still have to dig up those rare earth metals and make batteries. And then again, how many times does the metals go back and forth across the ocean and the completed batteries, etc. etc. And what do you do with the depleted batteries? Yes, some of the precious metals can be recovered, but not all. The theory is good, we're not ready for it yet. And with that I'm going to say 73 and back to neck control. V4GWN in Winnipeg. This is repeater station kilo kilo 7, November Quebec November, all star node 6222. Alright, Glenn, you kind of scared me there. I called Rosie and I got your voice. There you go. Anyway, thanks a lot for the check in. Technology is going so fast right now. In ten years or even five years, who knows what they're going to come up with with batteries. They may not have any precious metals at all. It may be something really simple, you never know. Alright, we got those in the log. Now let's move from the cold country all the way down to the really hot country and say hello to KC7LRS and KC7GHT. Good morning, Joyce.
