Ruh roh! Sometimes the statistics don't give the full picture. About that auto production. Yes, production has steadily been climbing. Thing is.....so is dealer inventory!

Not only was that a foolish program, like all governmental programs, it was supported by your tax dollars.

We bought a used 2006 VW Jetta TDI last year and couldn't be happier with it. We've recorded a high of 50mpg with it and a low of 44 mpg.

All I can say is that as a business owner I've seen an absolute uptick in deals being done that started back in August of last year. This is after at least two years of absolute paralysis to sign new contracts for software. We're now trying to hire to double our size in order to meet the needs of our already signed customers.

Obviously this is just one observation from the trenches, but all of my intuition tells me that things are starting to improve. I certainly hope that it improves for everyone else, too.

HVAC took a hard kick in the ass when the housing market collapsed. We surely haven't recovered and one would be hard pressed to say that we are in the process of doing so. Sure, there's been an uptick in production and we actually made money last quarter for the first time in several years. It's a good sign, but I wouldn't necessarily call it an indication of recovery. It's more like a spike to the positive after having flopped around in the red for a long time. Keep the trend going, if we can even call it that at this point, let's see it another 2 or 3 quarters, then we can reasonably talk about recovery from where I'm standing.
