   Well, it's never *exactly* neutral, but that's the target.  A   
   government entity isn't a for-profit venture.  I'd be willing to call   
   it zero if we were within a dollar, for example.  It's like   
   calculating pi with a Taylor series... we can get infinitely close,   
   but we'll never get an *exact* value.
