It's interesting how everyone has accepted as gospel that Ascend did indeed reject a $35 bid. If you just take a price today, $25, and go to $35, that's a 40% premium over market. What makes any of you think any suitor is going to pay more than 40%?

If I found out that the CEO of a company whose stock I owned turned down a 40% premium, I would be plenty angry at such a stupid greedy CEO. After all, 40% in the pocket is far better than 13% on a rumor.
