I knew zero backlog didn't make sense.

It still seems that backlog has soared while the price has tanked. Orders would have to disappear for the backlog to take a dive and that is NOT happening now.

A book to bill below one would cause a pattern similar to '96. That wouldn't be the end of the world and I regard that as a worst case scenario at this point.

Comments anyone?
