I think they have some very difficult challenges over the next three years. The silver lining is if they continue to reduce costs and strive for flexible manufacturing, they can see a return to profits even without the sales levels of 2000. But the Asian brands and European brands aren't sitting still either.

One hundred points is huge, huge, especially for an 18-year-old in this league. That's pretty unbelievable. It's definitely something I want to help him achieve.
