Thank you. That sounds good, but in reality what percent of the sum of the total increase is actually based on the CPI or other inflationary factors? It sounds good to be able to say that you base it on the ability of the employer to pay, but the ability of the employer to pay is not keeping up with the cost of living, then it is all for naught. I wonder what percentage of the increase, in this case a $3,000 increase from 1996, is the actual increase based on the percentage of the CPI or the Consumer Price Index?
