            All of those are in the format of how the Tamarians in Star Trek speak. They speak in metaphor, which completely fucks with the universal translator (since it’s translating what they’re saying rather than what they mean).

            Just in case you were looking for context. Also know as, my little morning info dump.

        3000 lives is nothing compared to 300 000, even if they are American.

          The sales dip is also less than 25 percent. If you assume constant sales through the year, the timing is also reasonable.

        I think you have your dates mixed up. These are sales from that calendar year. 2001 sales were down a good bit, so after the attack. 2002 sales was the big dip.

        Maybe the winter holiday sale would normaly be substantial and therefore had a over proportional impact. 2002 was the more significant drop though.
