Dramatic? Haha.. No I don't think that is dramatic. Ask yourself how much turbine pic a guy getting hired today in 2011 is going to build when airplanes start timing out in 2012. It is disingenuous to convince these people of anything else because that is the reality as things stand today. Don't let the "hope" obstruct your vision of the big red blob of facts on the horizon.
