Well, I say that they should wear masks. And first of all, Anderson, one thing that I think that we have going for us, this past weekend was the first weekend that our restaurants were open inside and that our bars were open inside. And I got some very good reports back. Sure, there was a few outliers. But by and large, very good. And everybody who works in any business retail or manufacturing in Ohio today is wearing a mask. What we're urging people to do is when they're out in public with other people, when they go into a store, we're urging them to wear a mask. And kind of the way I explained it today was that this is about loving your fellow human being. You know, the instruction is old as the Bible. You know, you're supposed to love your fellow man and woman and that's what we're really doing.

We're trying to balance it this way: you know, we've seen for about three weeks a slight downward trend in hospitalization, which we think is good.
