Glenn, this is HIGHLY irregular. We thought analysts were sleazy for lowering estimates up until 3 days before Amazon released earnings, but now we have amazon silently restating last years earnings just two days before they announce quarterly results. OC, I already gave up on the investing community using any fundamentals on the "thing." I am just trying to learn if this is common practice. The timing is a bit strange<G> The stockholder equtiy actually increased too which means this quarter they may still show positive equity. The increased stock holder equity came from goodwill and the acquired cash. Glenn

You babble on and on and don't have a clue as to what you are talking about. There was nothing "HIGHLY irregular" about the accounting in that filing. Go call Art Bell. I think the wild card line or black helicopter sighting line is open.
