[00:50:03] S0: Bring in a bunch of, measurements, et cetera. [00:50:07] S4: So I have an appreciation for like just the amount of sort of planning work that would have to go into this. [00:50:12] S1: Yeah. [00:50:12] S2: The other, the volumetric analysis seems really difficult to me. And despite that, they seem to have done it and, you know, they're getting a handle on what's needed. But the other thing that's really difficult or strikes me as very difficult is the placement of the bins. [00:50:27] S1: Yeah. Right. [00:50:28] S2: And this idea that you are actually changing New York's landscape, hopefully for the better. But in the meantime, you are taking up previously public space and having to figure out like the cost benefit analysis of doing that for literally every single building in. [00:50:45] S0: New York city. [00:50:46] S1: Yeah. [00:50:46] S4: That's pretty wild to think about just like how many blocks there are, but you know what? Like, I mean, I understand people park on the street and stuff like that, but that's socialized too. Why do, why do I, you know, that's really valuable real estate that some lucky people get to like park for. [00:51:04] S0: Free, et cetera. [00:51:05] S2: So, The only thing I'm going to miss is seeing the occasional rat eating. [00:51:10] S0: Pizza or something. [00:51:11] S4: You know, I'm really interested in the war on rats. You know, that was, I thought, something very, very inspiring during the Adams administration is seeing those numbers. [00:51:21] S1: Of rat sightings.
