Hi Robert,

Small detail to attend to on the numbers cited , that is, the numbers in =
the MSN summary are not each individual quarter, but instead, cumulative =
for the fiscal year. Accordingly, the 12/01 number is for the entire =
year, while the 3/02 number is for the 1st quarter of the new fiscal =
year. See the header information at the link:

http://moneycentral.msn.com/investor/invsub/results/statemnt.asp?lstState=
ment=3DCashFlow&Symbol=3DXRAY&stmtView=3DQtr

With respect to QoQ numbers (3/01 vs 3/02), here is the detail from the =
latest 10Q:
"Quarter Ended March 31, 2002

For the three months ended March 31, 2002, cash flows from operating

activities were $12.4 million compared to $47.3 million for the three =
months

ended March 31, 2001. The decrease of $34.9 million results primarily =
from

higher inventory and receivables levels, payments of annual volume =
rebates

for precious metal purchases and some initial restructuring outflows, =
offset

by higher operating earnings. [KM note: the detail on each of these is =
discussed in the 10Q]

Investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2002 include

capital expenditures of $9.8 million. Net acquisition activity for the =
three

months ended March 31, 2002 was $37.6 million (see Note 4 to the =
condensed

consolidated financial statements)."
