Flat earnings growth would certainly lead to further annihilation in this sector but Ron's database shows 67% growth this year and 41% next year for the offshore drillers with a high pct of revenues contractually locked in. Are you saying that the earnings estimates are predicated on ever increasing day rates ? I was hoping that they only required stable day rates.

Good luck,
John
