You have come up with $15 million and you still cannot give me a clear answer on exactly where you have plucked that from. You have just decided to pluck that and run that with everybody else. Forgive me if I am wrong, but you have done no modelling on the negative or positive impact of that $15 million, so can you answer: have you actually considered having this from zero—so any foreign investment into prime agricultural land should be looked at, no matter what the price is? Have you considered that at all, or did you just want to sit on the $15 million that you plucked from thin air?
