Jason: Our guards cannot jump in front of a bullet for you, but they also do not fall asleep, plan their iPhones, pick their noses or turn around away from their cameras. And so I would say that on balance, our guards are probably only maybe 150% as effective as a live guard while being a touchy. We believe that everyone deserves to feel safe. That's kind of the active word that we think about. The sense of lack of safety in San Francisco has created massive schisms. It creates schisms inside of families. It create schisms in front of between neighbors. People are leaving the city because of it. So what does it cost to install the cameras?
