I wish you guys would get off the pro-forma restatement for 12-31-97. We have too many posts to keep up with as it is. -g- They did not actually restate the prior year, just showed what things would have looked like if they had been combined in 1997 so investors can evaluate 1998 performance. Otherwise 1998 results would have no basis of comparison. This is not only SOP, but is required. See the definition of Pro Forma. A more interesting issue is the selection of a 3 year amortization of Bluesky. Regards, IS
