Tom, I asked the company today why they are using stock. Their answer:
it's a "pooling of interests" transaction to avoid a tax event for
the other company's shareholders. In other words, helpful to them,
harmful to us (at least in the near term). Coupled with the earnings
news I hope we are not in for one of the recent vintage of mega-punish-
ments at the open tomorrow...

Good luck,

Chris
