(I thought I was taking crazy pills so I looked it up..we're trending back up again, and projected to blow past that number)
It could very well be that the books I read were outdated by the time I read them. All extrapolations from "present" information can become obsolete with changed circumstances and new information.
It could also be true that there isn't just one peak, and that several peaks will be averaged together later to make a more generalized peak.
Still, expert opinions are more likely to be roughly correct than any uninformed estimates I might make myself.
