leslie tyler is here to explain why parts of the east bay and the south bay are doing so well right nowoing well, we're talking about the fact that they are going for more than their asking price. >> that's right. we have several dip codes in the bay area where homes are going for over asking price. >> good news for the home seller and not such good news for the home buyer and where were the hottest zip codes in the area? >> and the hottest zip code in the whole country is berkeley and two in oakland and two in san jose. >> why is that? why those three areas? >> this report covers april to june of this year am and we had a home buyer tax credit in effect for that time. so that stimulated a lot of buyer demand. especially in some of the lower- priced areas. and so we were seeing multiple offers and homes were selling for more than the asking price. >> so now the quote-unquote lower priced areas are not as low anymore. >> right. and they're lower than they were the last couple of years, so there are a lot of buyers that feel like the prices have fallen, and now is the time to try to buy,

tyler, you are next. caller: it is pretty obvious here marijuana growing is virtually nonexistent. helicopters can fly over and spot a leaf of marijuana. we have almost squashed it, even in the rural areas. business is probably booming in mexico. people do not understand, yes, it is very profitable right now to bring drugs from mexico. host: can you speak to the profits? guest: government estimates are that the amount of illicit trafficking is in the billions of dollars. i have seen as much as $16 billion to $30 billion. that is part of the reason that you see all of the violence down there. they are fighting for turf to get access to the u.s. market. our market is the largest in the world, when it comes to demand for illegal drugs. host: did gao look at this equipment, look at whether or not it is effective to curb the drug trade? guest: i think it is premature to conclude about how affective the equipment would be. we have not seen much of it. some of the helicopters have been delivered. some of the people in the area have been trained. some of the equipment has been used, but in

chris: tyler, again, we are talking about public health with the the gulf oil spill. i don't think dr. howard -- guest: that is a little outside my field of expertise. chris: craig, lake charles, louisiana. democrat. you are on, please go ahead. john: good morning. just had a question about the dispersant how it was banned in other countries and they brought it here to use on our gulf coast which we depend on our seafood and oil and gas for servicing the rest of the country. second of all, why did they need to use the dispersant? why couldn't they let the oil come to the surface which is easier to get to and won't mess up the environment as far as health hazard and get super tankers in here and take it off the top of the water? guest: that is a little outside my field of expertise again in terms of the logic of using oil dispersants. from a public health perspective, we obviously would like to see the least amount of hydrocarbons in in the human health space. so, i can't really comment on the logic of why oil dispersants were used. chris: are you -- chris: are you sup

it may seem silly but when my wife and i were helping some decorations before a big dance there in tyler, there were some ladies on a big scissor lift helping put up heavy 10-pound, 15-pound decorations to suspend the from the ceiling and they had 50-pound fishing line but they couldn't get any not to hold to keep those things up and so they yelled down, does anybody know of a not that would hold -- knot that would hold? i was an eagle scout, of course i do. so they brought the scissor lift down. i got on, got somebody to come up and help and i yelled to my friend, -- friend, if you had somebody yelling, does anybody know a knot that would hold, what would my friend seek to use? mr. thompson: i would -- there's a couple come to mind. i'd probably start with a bow line. mr. gohmert: that's the what -- that's quhay did. that thing doesn't give and you can do it with one hand. they made you learn to do it with one hand in case you were hanging from a rope on a mountain side, you could reach up with the other hand and tie that and be able to suspend yourself, just hanging with the rope. with

host: tyler on the independents'line, you are on with dr. john howard.r: one of my biggest concerns about the whole situation that i think is important to address for the future is that i have. there is an acoustic switch -- i have read there is an acoustic switch that would have cut it off polo the source, below the ground. the companies involved decided it was too expensive. the cost about half a million dollars. host: we're talking about public health with the oil spill. guest: that is all little outside my field of expertise. host: we will leave it there. lake charles, a democrat, you are on. caller: i have a question about the dispersant and how it was banned in other countries and they brought it to the united states to use on the gulf coast. we depend on our seafood and oil and gas to service the rest of the country. why did they need to use the dispersant? why not just let the oil come to the surface where it is easier to get to and will not miss of the environment as far as health hazards? they could take off the top of the water directly and pr
