I just think we need to acknowledge and I think science still has that stigma where it's this thing that other people do, that really smart people do or a certain kind of person does. So being there, we're breaking those stereotypes and we're showing who are actual scientists and we're involving people that are just showing up for a general public event. And they're actually involved with science by wearing these refraction glasses or learning something about the stars or whatever it is that science is not separate from the rest of the community. And I think that was one of our big takeaways that, yeah, by all means we should be in places like this.
