I just want to talk about smoke for a moment and the cost of smoke to individuals in Oregon. The smoke from these fires damaged grapes, and as a result, there was a lawsuit filed against Pacific Corps. Pacific Corps then settled a lawsuit with the vineyards for $125 million. Now, the hope would be that that wouldn't be passed on just to the consumer. But I'm going to guess that in one way or another, it will make its way back to the consumer, to the ratepayer.
