If you can hear me, the line opened up just a little bit, so they've got more product that's flowed out with the increase in fire, so we can at least get you behind that with me.

We're not, we can't get the time going to get the foam line down, and we get it up here.
01:07
Let's go ahead and leave that line in place, let's just get our chainsaw down.
