William Morrison (Thinkpanmure, LLC): Can you talk more about the pipeline? You said earlier that you got about 85% of the quarter booked at this point?
John P. Mueller: Correct.
William Morrison (Thinkpanmure, LLC): How concrete are those bookings? On the national side, people are still planning to spend in December; can they still cancel those?
John P. Mueller: On the national side they can cancel. We haven’t experienced much of that but that is definitely a risk and we review our pipeline during the week and every week. I took a look at it today and there have not been much movement in what our sales force is telling us about the feedback they’re getting. In this market, it’s day-to-day so we’re trying to keep our pulse on it as closely as we can because you just don’t know. However, we’re surprised by the resilience we’re seeing right now. We’re certainly not willing to go out on a limb and paint a picture of what we think 2009 is going to be like. We’re not going to do anything drastic until we get a little bit better visibility going forward.
