I can't unknow what I know. I think, for you to go into that meeting last night is very brave to say what you said. There are people that are interested even west of us and on the South Shore. So we're trying to have different points in the Boston area, like on the North Shore, South Shore, Needham area, West of Boston to meet up just for walks and stuff. It's those types of things. You can be yourself, your authentic self without alcohol.
