The point here is that all these numbers and percentages can be 
slanted in many directions. When I slant them in a way you don't like 
you come back with some new numbers slanted in another direction. 
Nobody has said that your "membership" (we are all in the same 
membership by the way) was not holding its own. You are being 
combative and a smiley face does not hide it.
