Better Luck Next Year?

According to Architectural Record, the AIA's Consensus Construction Report is not
giving us much hope for a better 2010. It appears that more pain is in store for us all.
Public Safety (?) may be the only specialty of the industry showing very modest
growth.

I think there is still plenty of bad news to come out of both residential and commercial
real estate.  We've already gotten off to a bad start with what may be the largest real 
estate default in history.

Hope I'm wrong.
