Hello.
Hi, thanks.
You know, I know you've been talking about plans.
Here's what I have in mind.
I already think about it.
You know, even I agree with you down here.
Oh,
They don't have the information.
Well, my view is that rather than having, putting a damn big installation on the little thing down, close it a little bit, that it doesn't matter.
Just have the alley and then upstairs.
One, two, three, four.
And put it on the third floor.
put up a very gorgeous table on the bed.
It goes up there and expands the bath and so forth and so on.
How would that be?
See, you've got the water and so forth down here.
Yeah, it could be done there.
It could be done there, as a matter of fact, then.
And then, I don't know.
And, uh, put it in there where it would be handy.
Yeah.
Well, I suppose we'll go down here.
Let's go over there.
But I didn't want to say in terms of what you do down below, but I think just the one strength of voting, as I understand it, is voting for the tribute.
Now, that would require, for example, organic changes to be done in the air condition, and that sort of thing.
I know that I don't receive it.
Even when I use this bulletin, I don't change each dollar an hour.
But if we had this down here, this is convenient enough.
You just take the elevator down and walk to it, right?
Yeah.
And you don't need showers.
You can go out and shower.
Thank you.
