>>EBN: Can you hazard a guess as to whether this is a quarterly uptick, or are we starting to spin
back out of the cycle?

Barrett: Europe is always very seasonally strong. Some of the positive environmental
issues are there for next year. We don't appear to have a huge channel inventory that was
present toward the end of last year, so that should be a positive. Anytime the channel
inventory is low it aids us, because that flushes stuff out of the line. And the only bit of
philosophical wisdom I can give you is, I think Asia is still very contingent on what Japan
does. With Japan, you get consumer confidence back. If Japan falters and goes downhill,
they're likely to take Asia with them. <<
