Carl, I remember the same thing happened in the MCI-BT merger. There was a 40%
discount in MCI's price to BT's. Since then, MCI has increased the entire
40%. There are a lot of short term traders that like to drive the acquired
company down also this is a stock deal so there is some discount normally.

CURRENT PRICES: RATL 14 1/4
PASW 9 7/8
-------
+ 40% discount very similar to MCI-BT

Also, it looks like RATL is headed higher today so it is very likely that in
a few days PASW will follow. I guarantee that institutions also know about
this and will climb aboard once the day traders are out.
