These are at different ends of the sales cycle and can both be accurate and contradictory at the same time. This is without asking whether this is by title or rolled up across lines.Ultimately, there is no way to resolve this as there is no public data of statistically trustworthy value. It's even worse for the 90s...</blockquote>
