Yeah.

I did have a opportunity and took it to meet with AEP, and they met with us and learned some things about that.

I asked a question that might go to the extreme, and I said, all right, so, AEP.

If there would be a situation where we are running short on energy, would our citizens be asked to conserve energy and put their thermostats on 80 degrees and all this kind of stuff? And they understood the ridiculousness of that question, but respectfully so, it's probably on a lot of people's minds.

They're a new foundational piece of infrastructure now.

But what are some of the other issues in this race for mayor? And it's an open seat because the current mayor is not
