Sounds like you did well to get out of the 'X' now at around the 45% mark. The market is looking very sorry for its self at the moment. Whats the hold up with the RS?

Congrats on the sale. Nice to have a Q7 as a stop gap without the expense and depreciation to worry about. I personally don't like them that much.
