Your statements and the (ahem) "accounting" mindset you used made me laugh, since you adjusted the number down once in a non-standard way (taking a one-time charge out) and secondly you adjusted the tax rate for the year (already on the books) which never existed. I mean, why don't I just imagine a tax rate of "0" for this year, and then claim some P/E based on that EPS?

Do you have some sort of trading motive you hope to further by posting misleading information?

You said:
The EPS for 1998 was .89 (with the one time charge) but would only be .71 if fully taxed. At $26.5 stock price the PE is 37. Not cheap.
