		<description>I hope you are right and I am hearing some of that already. Anecdotal reports from a number of contractors in various regions indicate that many of the contractors who are the low-ball competitors are closing up shop. In those cases it doesn't necessarily mean they are fly by nights -- it might just mean they don't understand their costs so don't know how to bid accurately. 

But too many of these guys are still around. Just yesterday I heard of a sealcoating contractor spraying sealer with the temperature at 42 degrees... anyone in the business knows what's going to happen to that sealcoat -- and it's sure not good for this industry. Here's hoping THAT company is out of business soon.</description>

		<description>The contractors that survive will be the good ones, hopefully.  The fly by night guys will be the ones out of business.</description>
