I think they did
Percentage Change = (Current # - Previous #)/(Current #)
eta: and realized i mistyped that in the MS9 thread - just edited it.
so they only switched Current # and Previous # in the denominator, their numerator is fine, so the signs should come out right i think. but ill check this again a bit later, since I cant access your google doc while Im at work.
Okay, this makes so much more sense now. Numbers still down, but not nearly as big a variation as the MS9 reported %change led me to believe.
