I'm afraid you're playing games with statistics here, Arny. There's no
peak at all in these numbers--all are well within the margin of error
of each other. What these numbers really show is that LP's market
share essentially flatlined more than a decade ago. 2004 was just an
outlier--probably sampling error.
