 There's no question refining margins are up. But you've got to consider that the refining industry has been in a deep trough for a number of years when margins were small or nonexistent.

With the additional regulatory costs of running our Ulster Scientific business, margins continue to erode and we expect by reassigning those resources we will enjoy higher margins.

 I think we have no (fan) interest after, basically, the PGA Championship, ... Our season kind of hits a low period, and we try and pick it up here this week. But it's gone through such a long period of a lull and here we are trying to get some TV time, and it's just not working out.
