I thought that might be what Dan wanted, but I was just enjoying the fact we can get you to do charts for us.

I would also have thought perhaps 2000-2005 average growth rate would be better if your afternoon is free.

You want GDP absolute? Don’t see that showing much (Netherlands and Poland have similar absolute GDPs, but this doesn’t say much about their respective economic circumstances…)
