2da, no need to get sidetracked. for me, its about recouping as much of the money lost. couldn't care less what the m.b. relatives say, unless its a factual article about ariad. having said that, do you have a theory for the ascending share price? may there be discussions going on at ariad that point to a for sale sign? for a company with the goods, but strapped with money issues, what other logic could cause a steady price increase?
