If you don't think 2 years data is of any worth, you may want to talk to the US government about the Census (10 year cycle). It's been working for 2 hundred plus years

The census has remained a steady slow climb for the past 100 years BUT the last 10 years has been a huge climb and very different too
Hate to see the next census. Sometimes 2 year old data is good but not in this case ASMFC.........Gary
