   So the forbearance would go for 4 years, then we decide there will be no   
   vaccine   
   (nor eradication), and COVID is forever.  Really 3.5 years is what that is,   
   but 4   
   years covers it.  Those businesses could just bounce back.  Otherwise, the bank   
   cam be left holding worthless properties, and you're saying we should just raze   
   the movie theater today, and use the land for something else?
