I love thier math too... the jump from 14 to 18.5, that's a difference of 4.5... which is a 32% difference.. or as a decimal.. .3215 to yeild 4.501 etc. A 24% increase from 14 would have been a 3.36 increase, yeilding 17.36 ( not 18.5 ).

Now however.. if you take 18.5 and reduce it by 24%.. you get 14.06 -decrease-

Both numbers do not mean the same thing....

Thus ~14 is 24% lower than 18.5.. however.. 18.5 is ~32% higher than 14. see what I mean...

Gotta love their new math.. perhaps someone should check their numbers before posting...
