They're really trying to bring their presence down here to Florida as well. A year or two ago they bought First National Bank which had just acquired a smaller chain called Old Southern Bank. My boss's boss came from 5th/3rd and she has told me that they take a rather aggressive approach to finding their niche in the market. It will be interesting to see what they do in this particular situation.
