Other than the range set-up, what do you think about the current schedule
of June ROCstock, ROCtober, and November ROCstock vs just having two events
like June ROCstock and ROCtober?
Just considering that ROCtober has only been around for about 4 years and
previously, it was just two ROCstocks per year.
Thank you for your input on this.
