I would be interested to hear more about the industry 360 degree turnaround you mentioned. Diane and I have been in the business since 2003. You have been out of it since then. We have seen changes, as I am sure you did when you were in the business. Your prespective would be unique with the gap in service that you have. Can you say more about the turnaround you see?

Just to clarify. Are you looking for feedback only from newbies or to include newbies?

As for a 360 degree turn around, are you saying we are back to the conditions of 2003?
