OT- Broker consolidation and lower commissions

I recently learned that the broker I use for most of my ST trading, Dreyfus, is being acquired by Brown & Co., a subsidiary of JP Morgan Chase. This should result in a decrease in commissions for my market orders by 67% and my limit orders by 33%. Unfortunately it will not get me access to JP Morgan research. In any case, I expect to do a lot more scalping once the acquisition is finalized, thus demonstrating that there is a strong price elasticity of demand.
