And we sponsor a group called Breakthrough and it's a bunch of [ unk ] around the country. But you reach in and you get gifted and talented kids from [ unk ]. And you pick them up in 6th grade nd you have a year and a half process and you know during summer and the whole goal is to get them into college and expose them of things and what have you. We are a member of A Plus Challenge. We bring teachers and principals in and get them- let them spend the week and show officers to see what kind of jobs there are because beauty of the space is we need electric engineers.

Here, everybody in this room should have a piece of homework to get home and that mentor, a young person through your [ unk ], tourist business, trucks business, there's all kinds of things you can expose them to. ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Future Generation","description":"Future Generation","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/sFbIsVLu/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2010-12-13T18:41:08.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/sFbIsVLu.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/video/sFbIsVLu/","duration":"PT2M31S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/video/sFbIsVLu/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}} ```
