Jim I think you're right. You know, it used to be when a company was going to report earnings, they had to meet their estimates.

Then they had to meet analyst's estimates.

Sometime later there was First Call's estimates.

Now it's called the "Whisper" number.

What's next? The "In between the sheets" number?

This is a truly a bunch of garbage and is an unadulterated testament to America's (Wall Street's) unending greed.

Well, the good news is: Perhaps next time the "Whisper" number may not be so high and CYCH will blow right past it. Unfortunately, as greed grows, so will "Whisper" number expectations with many companies.

Sorry for the sermon.
