<html><body><div>However, there is nothing keeping the registries from 
reporting specifically on the impact the price increases have or don't have on 
the tasting activity before the actual monthly reports are posted.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>Also, an evaluation of the zone files can also be done prior to that to 
get preliminary info on the tasting volume.</div>
