We dropped because of the massive defense spending cuts. I expect this is temporary. I expect we will have strong numbers in Q12013.

I think a lot of this had to do with both the hurricane and the fiscal cliff. A lot of companies cut inventories and the like in preparation for what may come in the future should we go over the cliff. When we avoided it, we saw a huge run up in the markets in January. I expect we will see solid growth numbers this quarter.
