Forbes reports: "Pension games: Accounting illusion hides woes"

The Reuters story is written by Deepa Babington. I think I want to remember that name.

Now I just have to ponder ---- retirement funds that have rosy projections are investmented in stocks of companies who themselves have rosy projections. Is that rosy-squared?
