Okay, Bob. I took a stab at an upper limit because not many corporations
of that size, maturity and variety pull off the feat of doubling in a
decade.

What's _your_ opinon, then? Come on, Bob, show us the big picture. Give
us your educated opinion. You don't like my numbers? Don't whine about
how I'm "making them up", offer something better.

You _do_ have a better idea and evidence to back it, surely?
