All around?

That looks interesting.

Yeah.

And, you know, uh, uh, they could talk, I mean, you know, and if, if, if an alien, you know, they could land on the, on the White House lawn like, uh, The Day the Earth Stood Still or something like that.

But, you know, I, I, again, you know, I, I, I really appreciate the book and I think, uh, you know, people ought to, uh, go through it and, and look at it and, and see what you found.

Now, Todd, do you have any, uh, last comments or, or, uh-

Yeah.

Yeah.

Uh, a big favorite was written by Harry Bates called Farewell to the Master, which was the original story that spawned The Day the Earth Stood Still.

But the twist in the book is at the end as, as the robot's leaving, they say, "Oh, sorry that we killed your master." The robot says, "You misunderstand.

I am the master."
