It's a good, strategic move, a good partnership. Sears is trying to jump into the e-commerce world in a pretty big way, focusing on their strengths and their hardware lines and appliances and home areas.

The partnership with ODC, Odessa Industrial Development Corporation, the Chamber of Commerce and the City of Odessa has made Quail Run Energy possible here in Odessa. We all look forward to this new venture together.

This will give Sears good positioning on the near-term basis with AOL, but, on a longer-term basis, it probably could be a fabulous opportunity for them. It depends upon when broadband will become of age.
