“But what it shows you is that, Home Depot, once they got into the call, they said [inaudible] pretty good. And, their professional stance may not have been as bad, I know I was worried that they went all into professional. But it’s starting to work. SRS was good. I will say that Home Depot was down a lot worse. . .no, look, Home Depot even in the depths of 2007, 2009, put in some really good numbers. I think Home Depot is struggling right now, as everyone is, one of the reasons why is everyone was hoping for a rate cut until what’s happened with Iran. Well because of that, these are great companies. . .”
