    Hi,

    This reminds me of the old accounting joke.

    There is an economist, engineer and accountant all going for a job. They are all worthy applicants.

    The interviewer asks the same question of all three… “what is two plus two”.

    The engineer thinks and replies “Well, the answer to 2.00000 + 2.00000 = 4.00000.”

    The economist thinks and replies “Well, assuming that inflation and taxation are nil, the answer is 4.0.”

    The accountant smiles, winks and says “I can make it equal whatever you want.”

    Cheers,

    Steve McKnight
