We put these two exhibits together to help illustrate that point and this is a cross section of the proposed buildings through, you see the upper right corner, the red section line goes on from the north end of the building to kind of the northeast. And that's the -- that represents this particular section. What this shows is what you would expect for a typical foundation loading case where you have a basement. Now, this doesn't identify a particular isolated footing, but what it shows is there's typically a fairly shallow foundation influence line, call it one to one influence line. So basically what happens is all the load is shed within that kind of blue zone and there is no load that is shed to the slope. There's been, from my understanding, questions and comments that have been made, there's been a concern that this building is shedding the load directly onto the slope and that's simply incorrect. Q. And just to confirm, the exhibit that we are looking at, and I just want -- so we want, do have a clear record. That this is your markup of one of the sheets of Mr. Appel's architectural submissions, is that correct?
