The expense is another, I was looking a similer idea in Gulfport a few years ago that also involved creating electricity from the desaltinization plant as well. We ended up doing it in El Salvador because our government was so restrictive and wanted us to spend about $200 million to prove that the idea would work. We felt we would be money ahead testing it out there.
