How refreshing  Grin I can remember seeing say 12 mths ago figures in the 2-3 % range.

That is quite promising.

I think that ties in with the 1% extra needed each year to reach the 2020 target of 20%.

Now that thinking seems to be changing, and acceptance is higher, hopefully we can maintain the curve, and shoot for the stars.

2050 predictions anyone?
