mark, could we get you-- stephanie i would like to go backo a slide. it is the one called the cyclic gray adjusted capital buffer. is it too much trouble to get out? because, what i'm going to ask you marked when we get this- how hard is it, stephanie? now can we get to the one-- it isage 7. thatne. mark, isn't this another example of an effect, a counter-cyclical down payment requirement, where the down payment is the tal of the bankinsystem as opposed to the capital of the mortgage borrower and itead of telpd of the borrower we simplyhave to levage our system of the banking. isn't this really the same idea? >> you, i think it is. it doesn't make a ditinction as i said earlier beeen assets or e assets of the banking system because it is very likely that the next couple will be housing, because of what we have been through and what it has do to the regulatory system in the banking system, so the next problem could be somewhere se. we don't know whe, but this would be-- addressed that in the same kind of framework but it is just broad in context. again
