If you look at the number nation, i think between the age of 55. 00, i dont what we owe 70 percent of the cost, or would even this age range on the just the level of mark . Well, this is the energy model. The control stones will digital mode is more of what youve been talking to you. But if you dont look up the meals video, im excited mental on this new duties. So when you look at this, this, this structures in addition to the massive deposit of the we have, like directly measuring the energy teams.

Because the, the money investment, but we dont, we dont have to know how to be able to part is barclays this morning. I have the money to go to the doctor shows we move forward and investment in this one. An investment is more meaningful. Whereas the quarter, the distribution, were not the daughter put me in the try to use what cash the bottom of our quarter. That is, what are the back under the, what i would do would be on the new show, but its boise is going to, shouldnt have to go to the, you know, those are to know what the charge for the machine is. Are we need to be able to follow up with the discipline . Were looking for us to do an example of trying to do the just the, its the, the dcf was wondering, investment to the local. What, you know, just the, the, the, thats what the name of, by the 25 did. Did you do folks, marketing the marketing ones, my believe have picked 10 bucks. De potentials to one, to the, in the middle of the draft was you said theres a lot of opportunities for uh, Economic Development in africa.
