Thank you, I learned something. Somewhere I got the idea that availability was all there was to consider.
The other graph on gross output that Mark Skousen created seems like a very good predictor of economic activity. Yet the last time he updated the graph was from the 1st qtr of this year. I do not see a correlation to his graph to anything I see at the BEA site. Why is that?
