(By the way, there is a commercial database firm EDGAR Online (
www.edgar-online.com ) that is NOT affiliated with the SEC. They
provide the SEC's EDGAR filings and much more financial information
for a subscription fee, and they're designed for professional use.
Stick with the free online filings the government already provides.)
