djharker, your post was great. Sort of like an interview. Thanks very much. Good luck with your new shoes, er, shares.
downreg, thanks for your thoughts on the share price and developments. While I am weakened enough to almost concede that others see this as not a big deal really, I still feel strongly that this news is very big.
houndish, similar thought are crossing my mind today. My best take now is that, as I was trying to put in words, there are always people who want out. Maybe they need the money for a house. Could be a million reasons. I wonder what paulness will have to say about the trading today.
arnold, it is not my intention to "make excuses" for why the stock performance was not up to my expectations today (I haven't seen the close). Rather it is to make sense out of it, mainly for myself. I am still very unclear and uncertain in my mind as to why the reaction to this news was not more "enthusiastic".
