One of the examples that was raised by Shawn and some other papers on our first day of hearings was Mr. Finkelstein I believe is the cost of litigation is so prohibitive against a small defendant that quite simply a lot of times a small guy can't afford to litigate these matters. At the time, that was the case. We just don't have the resources that companies with those kind of $500 million or $1 billion companies can actually come at us with.
