By last March the average had dropped to eight years.

In the early 1990's the average had dropped to 36,000.

But in 1995's first 11 months, that average dropped to 343,069.

From its high on April 6, the average has dropped 170.17 points, or 7.07 percent.

In the past several weeks, the average has dropped to four acts of violence a day, American military officials said.

But this season, the 60-minute average has dropped to 5.66 through Wednesday's games.

However, the key quarterly average has dropped and is down to 33,700 over the three months to March.

By last week, the average had dropped to 7.32 percent, the lowest in 15 months.

From 1980 to 2004, this average has dropped to 265 m/s.

Even if, say, $3 million in bonuses were added, the average still would have dropped slightly more than 5 percent.
