Not as much volume(none) as I thought tho, what do you think?

I still don't understand. (Thanks, Keith, anyway) "Revenue" is money coming in, right? Then you subtract cost to calculate profit, right? So all we know is it will cost around 8.6M to build. Who's to say whether they can only charge 8.7M?

I'm a novice at when it comes to dissecting a business. 10k's and 8k's are a foreign language to me. But this PR only mentions revenue, not profit, so I'm suspicious if they did that for a reason.

Oh. Well, that verifies what I said about being a novice.
