Off topic:

I apologize for not getting back to you. I've been in meeting and CPE (going-back-to-school for CPA's) for a few days now. I will check tommorrow or over the weekend, but I believe CPI was 161.5 on 12/31/97 and 158.6 on 12/31/96, so 161.5/158.6 = 1.8%. But this does seem low. I will look into this - truth is I'm a little embarrassed I don't know right off hand.

What I often am much more concerned with is long-term U.S. Treasury Bonds like 20 or 30 years. Because these offer a no-default riskless rate, this is a baseline rate from which all investment and valuation considerations are based. That rate at which you're guaranteed, literally, a specific rate of return. This was 6.7% at 12/31/96 and 6% at 12/31/97.

PS - Everyone paying attention to current mortgage rates? Wow!!
