  Katherine, you know I hate to sound ignorant, but the question not =
asked is the really stupid one.

  Do I understand you as saying that Treasury stock is not counted in =
any assessment of earnings per share even tho it remains issued?

  What about dividends, voting rights, etc?

        Hi Scott,

        The rest of the 41% not owned by management  is owned by SFE, an =
"incubator" that has a portfolio of  companies in which it maintains a =
substantial portion of the outstanding shares. See =
