Les, methinks some executives are getting antsy about the value of their stock options should the pooling trick be disallowed. perhaps the idea that a rigid purchase accounting system doesn't do all mergers justice is partly correct. but the fact remains that the current method is mainly misused to massage earning in order to please Wall Street.
i'm sure the mania apologists will win the day however.
