You're so kind, Rebecca. Thank you, and radio waves to you, James. I neglected to mention during my first check-in that we lost power night before last in the middle of the night. I've got one of those little flip clocks, so it'll stop, and we'll know exactly the minute that we lose power, so that was kind of interesting. But it was a really interesting opportunity for me to see Robert in action. So he just goes to another place when electricity is involved. He's got all the gear. I'm not kidding you, Rebecca. Our house is full of extension cords. He had battery backups and power inverters and all the things. He had everything wired up before I even woke up the next morning. And then he got this gargantuan generator on loan from his boss and fired that up. And so our whole neighborhood is without power, And we've got the heaters on, the refrigerator's plugged in. We had the TV plugged in so we could watch that. And it was quite the sight to watch. He just was really in his element and just super focused and getting everything plugged in. And he's got an app on his phone for everything in the world and so he's monitoring how much power is coming in, how much power is going out. Like he was just having a field day. And I was grateful for all of it, but also it was fun to watch him really shine in his element, well, one of his many elements, which is all things electrical. But we're back up and running now. Oh, and I'd given him the Starlink for Christmas, and it showed up the day before we lost power. So he threw that up outside, and I was able to keep working because I had the internet connection also. So yeah, just running on all cylinders even though we didn't have any power. So I wanted to throw that out there. And he's probably not listening, but thank you, Robert. He's a superstar. KJ7RAB, back to you.
