Are we splitting hairs here?

I don't think we are. It really bugs me that some people will take a Made For TV number from a PR and claim Company X beat yadda yadda yadda. After all the turmoil the market just went through with the black magic combination of revenueless internuts having "pro forma" earnings it doesn't do anyone any good to stick their fingers in their ears, close their eyes, and do the "Pro Forma Profits...Pro Forma Profits..." chant like whacked out ex-MBA Hari Krishna next to the Continental "Elite" line at Newark.

You know what I mean?
