..well, there are still arguments, but I feel Smithers and Parish are alarmist; reality is bad enough, no exaggeration necessary. Investors can work through the footnotes, and I expect (hope) that the semi-efficient market thinks about them. Your remaining worry in extreme cases, like MSFT's, is that cash income under current rules is leveraged to the stock price, due to the tax shield on exercise. If the market goes down, all else being equal, MSFT earns less. -mb
