Subject: Re:You cite only short term losses. I clearly said that over the long run:
(V): Again, that was comparing a one time year to a previous year. NOT A STEADY DECLINE.
The SHORT TERM LOSS you cite was from 2008 to 2009. It just so happens that the loss was lower than the high of 1980. But what is needed to prove your thesis is a long term STEADY DECLINE.
You didn't show that now did you? And here I though you studied stats!
