“Thank you. He really does deserve the applause. He puts a lot of thought and effort into it, and he does a really great job articulating it. I'm going to be a little quieter and maybe not talk on everything that you brought forward. But let me just start off by telling you how much I appreciate you showing up. Your emails, your phone calls. I really appreciate it. And the reason that I appreciate it is we work hard. All of us live here in the city. We have to. That's one of the rules. And I live here. I raised my family here. We drink the water here. We breathe the air. But that doesn't mean…”

“Okay. And that water use that you're describing, is it only dedicated to the data center operation or does that include, you know, toilets, landscaping? Do you know what the breakdown is?”

“Total water use. Okay. So I saw a metric somewhere that it was like half and half. So about half of that was for landscaping and Yeah, I don't have that breakdown, but the total use is about 3 million gallons per year. Okay, all right. So, sorry I caught you off guard. I thought we had that one, so I beg your pardon for that. The one thing that comes up in conversation a couple of times was about low frequency noise, and I don't recall seeing that in the MND or anywhere else. Do you know if that has been studied?”

“Okay. And then, uh, one of the, uh, so that's something that we could look into for sure. And then one more question and that is around the, uh, around the energy use. Uh, there's been some concern that the huge amount of energy that they're going to use is just going to completely pollute our skies and so forth.

“Okay, I'm asking the obvious question because a couple people heard me say that, and they just didn't want to believe it. But it's required. It's in the documentation. You can read it for yourself online. So we are going to do more, and, again, I am in favor of taking the steps we need to do that. Thank you.”

“I'm usually pretty good at math, but I'm kind of thinking that it might be difficult for someone, say, at 57% to rise to the 75% threshold between now and the end of December. How's my math? Is it possible?”
