Jeff, you were talking to me a few weeks ago about the percentage of cash buildup we've seen in the past several months and comparing it to 1990. Remember a 6 month CD was yielding 2.01% a week ago, a year ago it was yielding 4.85%. back in 1990-91, the yield was more like 10.0% That's a massive difference between getting a 10% and a 2% return. Thus, I don't believe you could see the same magnitude of a cash build up occurring as back in 1990-91. John
