Danny, bought Dddc @ 20 7/8 because if you read this press release carefully... why are investors concerned about a CEO's resignation when he's only going to the parent company? I sold my last bunch of Dddc in the high 50's. I hope it goes back there again. >New York, March 24 (Bloomberg) -- Deltathree.com Inc.'s shares fell as much as 29 percent after the provider of Internet telephone service said Chief Executive and President Amos Sela is resigning to join RSL Communications Ltd.
