so in looking at the marin experience and looking at the sonoma experience, the piloting that sonoma did is attractive to us. we're still talking and evaluating how we might want to begin the effort, but i think the biggest unknown for us, for the early planning aspects of it, is when the cpuc would act on any filing we would make. and having that assurance of funds is really what's going to make the difference between being able to launch as we definitely know we will with energy watch, bay run, all the programs that the cca rate payers are already paying for because they are also pg&e rate payers, so we know we will have that suite of offerings. the question is what more can we do and how do we achieve the vision that was described towards the later half of the presentation, because that's the overall goal. >> when does that sort of get, i guess the programs, if they are adopted and if the more expanded offerings are part of this launch, either the first wave or second wave or however it rolls out, at what point do you have an understanding in terms of like a budget reliance with t
