OK. Thx for doing my homework for me. Sorry haven't had time to really dig in a day or so. But thx for pointing it out in the balance sheet. I thought you were doing some fuzzy math calculations instead, but there it is in black and white. You know what I'd love to see? A sum total of all revenues generate by the company since going public. Take that number as the denominator and R/E as the numerator and you'll have an interesting figure. Anyway, on the face of it, I can see how you are skeptical that this company is generating cash from operations. Essentially, this company has been able to generate $6.8 billion of value over it's lifetime. I'd like to see the most recent quarter's incremental addition to this figure too from the 10Q. So you've given me some food for thought. I'll reply when I have time to dig and think. Thx!
