No slow down here, (US South East)

Curious. What state.

Charlotte metro area, which straddles NC and SC.

I'm on the SC side of the line. Less taxes. :)

There is a bit of nervousness in the US market right now...

I talk to a lot of retailers (not job related I just talk a lot) and most of them are lamenting that things are slow right now.

The problem is that there isn't a problem, just the perception of one. If you cut the fat now your saving money for the bad thing that MIGHT happen.

They are horrible over west, in Perth. Everything is basically dried out.
