Yes, I am looking at actual cost to shareholders and comparing that to the estimated costs given by SFAS-123. Which are entirely different things.

My actual costs are triggered by the cuumulative grants in the past whereas SFAS-123 estimates the effect of granted options.

Different. Like Apples and peaches.

OT ... Jim, yes, John and I are both aware of that.

We've had skirmishes in the past about which of the two is the proper method to expense options. I .. based on value at grant, John .. based on value at exercise.

To me, it's progress to see John put both in the same table. Of course, that's probably just his subtle way of saying, "Look how the hell far off the SFAS 123 method was". :-))
