Bucks, I know we have gone back and forth a few times on semi plant closures. I posted a few months ago about how when the industry leaders make a stand and curtail production or close a plant, many times the competitors (if they are smart) will follow suit.... Well, if you have been reading the list of cutbacks and closures on the DRAM front, one my conjecture that we could be setting ourselves up for some significantly higher prices next year. There have been many articles lately stating closures and cutbacks. Any comments? MileHigh
