    Jim,
    I know that you have mentioned before from different sources that Cville real estate was overpriced by as much as 25% 4 years ago. If people take the WSJ guidelines and price 20% 2005 prices where the heck does that leave sellers in the downtown area? Just curious about potential numbers and the possibility of prices going down just a bit more here. Thanks very much.
