Well, I think public pressure. There’s a couple of, you know, we, there’s a couple of ways to do that. One of the things that’s been pretty effective for us is to point out to them that the, the zoo has a pretty profound economic impact on the, on the city and on the state. You know, we have our economic impact, annual economic impact, from beyond the a hundred mile mark, not from the people that live in the Omaha and Douglas and Sarpy and Pottawatomie counties, but from beyond the hundred mile mark, has been pretty accurately measured at about 100 to $110,000, a million dollars a year, a 100 to $110 million a year impact. That helps make your point, get your story across. The fact that, that we got 75,000 families on our membership role, that we publish a newsletter and also have them on our email list, and, you know, you don’t want to be too, too overt on this, but the fact that if you, you know, if you look like you’re going to be the zoo’s enemy, all of these people in these families are going to know about this in no uncertain terms. And then when you have to go before a city council, you know, it helps if you’ve got 75 or 150 people who show up at that council meeting in zoo t-shirts. And we used to do that on a regular basis, you know.
