Alright, and let me ask you just a quick question about the pandemic. So we've experienced a lot of changes in 2020, and many have been negative and disruptive, but perhaps it's not all bad. What's one positive thing you've experienced during the pandemic?
Layne Williams 1:12
As a medical professional, I work in an acute care hospital. We’ve seen many, we've seen devastation but we've seen changes that require extremely different thinking. And we have been up to the task, and we have persevered and conquered all of the different things that we had to literally change in our thinking and the way we do things overnight.
Matthew Williams 1:54
Excellent. Thank you very much for your time today. We appreciate your response.
