Well, the society was advocating, I mean their ability to raise money. they could go to the private sector and Lord knows, San Francisco bay area is a very rich area. There was a lot of money, a lot of philanthropic money in the area. They said, people were hesitant. They said that people were hesitant to give money to the city because the city would never spend the money like they were supposed to, they would accept something and then do something different with the money. So the society would said that they could, their selling points where they’d be more efficient, oit would be efficient and raising money, they’d be more efficient in terms of budgeting for the zoo, because the city’s budget was never realistic or dealt with change in a reasonable time. And the society being an independent organization, they could make changes whenever necessary, as easy as they can, which I found either to be true.
