I live in a remote area.

keep in mind ASML resides in the Netherlands which is somewhat remote with respect to their customer base as well.
I understand ASML knows "real tine" what's going on with their equipment;
they know exactly how many wafers passed through stepper X.Y and Z over the last 24 hours....
ASML probably knows a lot more about inflection points than all pundits combined
and most likely LRCX, AMAT as well as NVLS have similar knowledge with respect to tool utilization
