<First I do find it odd that someone would try to represent a $0.05 revision as a 167% decrease.>

Henry, I'm sure you took many math classes on your way to gaining your PHD, so maybe you can tell me where I made an error in my math?
I still think going from +.03 to -.02 is a 167% decrease in the earnings estimate, but I haven't taken math in a while so please explain why my calculation is wrong. Maybe its that new math they are teaching..
