Where are you finding this? I'm looking at Earnings on Briefing and it says est .49 and an adjusted actual of .34.....What's the adjusted? This seems kinda deceptive--.! I'm sorry if I alarmed anyone--but would someone with Briefing tell me where they're looking ???
Wait---it just showed up on short stories as .49 (a)...The Earnings page must be messed up? Or do the non-recurring charges lower it that much?

Conference call was excellent...Russ, in his usual good humor said despite the dire forecasts for the end of the world GLM managed to do exceptionally well, and 1998 looks to be as good...perhaps up 33% in most categories...backlog is double from last year at this time.

There was some dicussion about the stock price, but the company folks bowed out for giving reasons why the price has tanked...one analyst said that he thought that recession could be some investor's worries...but activities in the field do not bear this out.

We will have to wait for the market to catch up to reality.
