Guess I need to correct that. The greater is the dreariness then the greater is the "need" for sunshine, so that would be a direct relationship, not an inverse relationship.

The inverse comes into play in that the greater is the dreariness then the less is the sunshine.

My bad.

PS:  I am just tired of the dreariness, no matter how you say it.  Time for some sunshine, Jon Evans.  Let's get the darn thing at Cauchari-Olaroz open and producing.  Yesterday would have been too late and tomorrow is not soon enough.  "Get 'er DONE"
