i was looking through past statements and he has always said that if he did a merger he would take it to a national market, for years he has said that now.
he is obsessed with creating value for us. and he is clearly aware of the fact that moving this to the NASDAQ or similar exchange would explode it with investor awareness; especially with today's health care focused national agenda.
what im getting at is that im sure any M&A deal would include a nice bump in to a grander exchange.
