I would think so, but I recall that Brad Justus once said that they weren't
tracking that. It surprised me. He also said that the figures quoted in
the Orange County article a few months ago were off by a large margin -- the
reporter had wrong info.

I suppose that would be a good way for them to artificially skew the numbers
upward if they wanted to present that image. But look at the numbers: 1 in
10 in the U.S. would imply hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of AFOLs
in the U.S. I'm saying I'd really hafta know where the figure of 10% came
from, and how they did all the accounting, before I could believe it in terms
of what we all want and hope it to really mean.
