Leeza, WOW, that is excellent analysis and is much appreciated.

I have stated several times that the $40 rumor price is way too low,
and part of my reason for discounting the rumor(s) is just what you have
so eloquently stated. I had figured low $50s as reasonable, but $48-$49
works almost as well. :-)))

Now, how does one justify paying $48-$50 when the stock price was
going for $22? Well, first you have to get the stock up to say the
mid-$30s, I would think.

A partial leak is one possible way (not saying this happened). Another
way is to confirm "comfort" with good (but very doable) earnings and
then come in above that level.
