It was interesting to note that other Google alerts that I got yesterday gave
links to stories that were more like what you describe above. I guess it might
be all in how you interpret the numbers. Although things may still not be
fantastic, it seems that at least 2004 wasn't quite as bad as the year before.
And that leaves me hopeful that 2005 will be even better. :)
