Are you a land shark doing deals? Now we're going to go back and talk to them and be like, listen, how do we get through this deal now? And if we can't, it literally squashes the deal. So no more data center. The hard part then becomes what happens. Basically, our client has to move on with their data center plan. Maybe they just stay a tenant, you know, I don't know. But we won't be moving forward on buying dirty dirt And I never look at something and say, oh, well, this is a problem, and put my hands up in the air and say I'm done. What I've come up with is a plan to make it work. And so I'm hoping that these guys are open to that.
