Steve- Out of curiosity, the 4% yr/yr growth that will be reported in USD doesn't concern you? It's easy for us to say it's because the greenback is so strong against the euro today, but I'm not sure how many investors will realize that, six months or a year from now, when looking over ALA's financials for valuation analysis. I notice that MS Investor seems to be taking a long time to post the results on their website. So I'm wondering if someone over there is scratching their head like I was. I keep wondering if I did the math wrong. Because 42% EUR growth reported by ALA will be quite different from 4% USD growth. Personally, I'm hoping I made an error somewhere or maybe MS Investor has. Plus, did anyone catch that Serge reported net losses in 99Q1. I couldn't figure that out either. It seems to me they made money per MS Investor for at least 13 quarters running. I didn't attempt to figure that one out. I'm just wondering if anyone else heard the same thing. -MikeM(From Florida) PS I wrote up some detailed notes for future reference on the 00Q1 Earnings CC for anyone interested at: Message 13708738
