Once again, if you listened to the mainstream media, you were left yesterday feeling as though a recovery in auto sales was nothing more than a pipe dream. Last month as sales exceeded those in the previous year, the media changed the way auto sales were reported and focused all of its attention on the month over month numbers which promoted weakness in the auto industry. This was a drastic change in the way numbers were typically scrutinized, with year over year comparisons being the norm for the last five decades.

    Keep up the great work.

    Chris
