Transit Stamp consideration for H1-B (resetting) 1 year period

Can you please help on clarifying the oneyear reset for H1B.

-Was working on H1-B and I left US in April/02 for good.
- Visited US in Dec/2002 for 10 days.
- went back on 4/Jan/2003
- have a transit-stamp on my passport for my travel from India to Canada
(My passport has India, US, Canada transit stamps on the same day of Transit from US)
- came back to US on 14/Feb/2004 for 3 days.

Will my H1-B be reset (OR) will the transit stamp (its not a visa) break my 1 year outside the USA for my H1B to reset???

Note: I have Canadian residency, so there was no need for Transit visa for US.

Please advice.
