So let's just read those lines. 13 So it starts here, um, 14 the first semester, if that is indeed electricity, 15 that causes the unified to have to close to test the model. 16 They wake up verify electrodes and, um, 17 applied and, uh, current to the libs of the trap. 18 This made the trap close without any direct touch to the trigger hairs while 19 it didn't measure calcium was the current likely lead to increases. 20 Okay.
