Q: Hi All, I was just reviewing the Summary report and it is really cut back from the usual. Personally I like looking at the results by stock for the different time frames, ie Monthly, TYD and total. Is this the new format going forward?

Q: Hi Peter I apologize in advance with yet another question on Badger. At what rate are you assuming earnings grow over the next few years? I see in 2009 they earned $1.82,2010 $1.72, 2011$2.39 , 2012 $2.41 and if we annualize current ytd eps we get $2.82. Kind of erratic over the last few years. Once you let us know what growth rate you are assuming can you please let us know what multiple is reasonable for that growth rate? Thank-you.

Q: I am a bit conflicted by Badger Daylighting - BAD. On the one hand my investment has more than doubled ( on your recommendation)and the last quarter was great. On the other, I wonder about the lack of barriers to entry - already a "little Badger" ( Lonestar West - LSI-X ) has emerged in the Canadian market. Of more concern would be a larger U.S. player ( where BAD's growth will be)entering the space. Could I have your thoughts on Badger specifically in regard to this concern over lack of barriers to entry? Do you see it as a cause for concern?Thanks.
