The traders who are involved in the market are not guys whose moral fibre when it comes to environmental conditions are going to be rattled at all. They seeing dollars and they're making money. Brokers don't say away from copper because it violates their religious beliefs, or your environmental policies. There are times when you think about it but it's fleeting. It really is a fleeting moment. It's like well, a town is being polluted down there in Peru but, hey, this guy needs to buy some copper. I'm getting paid a commission too. The information that we receive does not include anything about the environmental conditions because until the environmental conditions become a commodity themselves or are being traded then, obviously, we will not have anything to do with that. It doesn't come into our psyche at all. It's so far away and you hardly hear anything about it. I mean, keep in mind there things going on right in our backyards. We trade live hogs. I mean, there are so many pigs in the state of Carolina and they're polluting the rivers but how often do you find out about that?

No
00:00:22.068 --> 00:00:23.999
