Jeff, Your numbers sound about right according to the latest formula but try it when you have the chance. I would like to see three technicians here too but that will never be a reality. However, I believe the 2.5 number I get from the formula will turn the inventory condition declining curve back up. It will still mean a good bit of work to be done. (No time to stop and smell the roses :) The numbers are realistic and that is the point we need to stick with in any justification.
