Ed a 30% decrease is a large decrease for around here, but almost all of that was in the first three years, the last two seem to be leveling out.  Hopefully it will be heading back up for this year.

Hi Ed.  I like the way you break down the market  so that people can make sense of what the numbers might mean to them.

George, I thought it would have turned around by now, but it still in a state of flux. As for the percentage of drop, when the town did the re-evaluation the average decline was 26% and these numbers are higher.

Carol Ann, thank you, making the facts presentable so the consumer can read and understand them is what we should do.
