As best as I can remember this is the 4th quarter with the exact same results. The analysts seem to be coming to the conclusion I have, Management has no clue. I listen to them almost daily as it takes a while to figure out the code..... For example my all time favorite is "flow of excess inventory" It took a while hearing this over and over to finally conclude, this must be "selling stuff we can't move at a loss...." My conclusion, the more they make, the less they know.....

My wife was doing pretty well selling Avon, by far the best of any direct marketing things she's done. When they closed their domestic call center (or whatever it was) several years ago she quit in protest.
