Perfect.

Thank you.

There's something I didn't get to say earlier when the libraries were testifying, but something I mentioned outside which is I also just feel like we all have these stories of the people inside of the library that have affected us so positively.

4:02:14

Just names and personalities and experiences that will take with us forever.

4:02:21

And that generational investment, I think that's important.

That's phrase we should I'll certainly be using more, so thank you.
