And it's kind of. I'm proud of this. You know, John Warner did it, you know, previous, you know, legislators, and virtually every state did it. And We are literally the last state, you know, with the 11 House members in the two centers, 13 of us. Not everybody comes every time, but everybody comes most times. And the fact that no other state does that now is kind of, you know, I'm proud of Virginia, but it's a pretty pathetic state of politics that you can't come together in your home state with other members and find common interest. I know, I know. So we often will have other colleagues come into Virginia. So when your colleagues from the Senate come, where's the one place you tell them they have to go before they leave the Commonwealth? (11:13–11:35)
