Hi Bill,

cash flow is measured on an annual basis. DGO shows earnings of 84 cents for
2001 and cash flow of only 80 cents.

Tom,
I'm sure I speak for all the CANSLIM newbies/lurkers in thanking you and the
other contributors for the information and analysis you folks make available
to us. This response to Tim's challenge was excellent. I'm even beginning to
understand the thought process. The specifics expand on what 's provided in
WON's books although I guess it's all available in AskIBD.

Re you comment on FCN's cash flow being below earnings - is that 4th qtr
earnings of $0.23 x 4 = $0.92 compared to cash flow of  $0.80?

I took the trial subscription to DGO. I agree,it certainly makes due
diligence easier.

Thanks,
Bill King
