Hmmm, sounds like GE has already spent the $8.4 billion diff somewhere else and is
not gonna find it through Net stuff. Look forward to a dip of that magnitude
somewhere in next years finrep.

I love this modern number fiddling. "Savings" are spent before they are
realized. 30 years ago a manager would get fired if he/she so much as thought
of doing anything like this, nowadays it's bread-and-butter.
