You brought up the government's S and T strategy. One thing that was heard from this committee last year in our manufacturing report was that we should be investing more in research and development. The government responded with record amounts for R and D; I think we put $9.2 billion into our S and T strategy.

I'm curious, do you have any statistics about who invests more in R and D and equipment? Is it the manufacturing sector or the service sector?
