And there was one story I remember from 2011, and it was a company called Exploration Orbite, and they had halted their stock, and they moved their office, and the stock went from a dollar to $4 or some insane move like that, and then turned out to be a zero.

Then, at like 20 minutes later, [laughs] they announce a $14 million deal where George Ogilvie, as you said, who, who, who had just sold his company for $2 billion, who just took over as CEO of Hercules, all of these things we love, comes on as chairman.

Dave Loton, who just sold his, uh, the thing in Finland for 400 million or wh- whatever the company was called, um, who's, who's a great investor, comes on the board.
