I think we all see what we want to see, to some degree, especially when something is not an exact science. Counting days is pretty straight forward. I still believe that comparing states doesn't add much because the intangibles for each are so different. In that context, maybe the discussion here would be more valuable if everyone stated their view and the ideology behind it instead of critisizing someone else's view or assessment of something. It might encourage some to post up the views instead of the few of us who do.
