Thanks Auric I actually lost it but I'm still looking hopefully it will turn up. But also I read about B2B e-commerce firms that are allowed to report gross sales as the value of all the items sold when in reality the income is only the commissions from the sales. 2 Very Different Numbers.

(Millions)
Example: Ventro $31 Actual Rev (fees & Comm) $1.6
Vertical Net $17 Actual Rev 0.3
DoveBid $ 4 Actual Rev 0.1

This is Fascinating stuff.
