Wheeler said. ?EUR??,,????'?????<?Our market has always been contractors, and the state of the construction industry affects all of us. Looking around this room, however, I see that although some of you may have smaller companies than you did three years ago, you?EUR??,,????'?????<???EUR?re making it work. You?EUR??,,????'?????<???EUR?re still successful. I?EUR??,,????'?????<???EUR?m here to tell you that so are we.?EUR??,,????'?????<?
