Gulfbreeze,

It's not semantics. It's the definition of words and the misuse of one.

<<Whether you want to call it dilution or whatever is Semantics it does make a big difference>>

It would be like calling the sky green and then saying "Green. Blue. It is only semantics." No, one is right and one is wrong. If shares enter the float, that does not cause dilution. Period. It's the wrong word, just like calling the sky green would be wrong. that is all I am saying. And that is not semantics. that is using a word properly vs saying something that is not factually true.

I was clearing up the usage of a word that is not used correctly. One more example, since this one I hear and see a lot. "It was literally raining cats and dogs out there". People say "literally" ALL (hyperbole) the time when they mean the OPPOSITE. They mean figuratively, but to emphasis it they say "literally". So I wsa pointing out that CAPT continues to use a financial word incorrectly, and accuses Wilf of something that is just not true. I'm not even defending Wilf! Just the usage of a word incorrectly. Not semantics.

Night. I"m going to bed.
