With all due respect, if I decide to pick up some shares of WFC and FTU takes them out, from my perspective I _do_ _not_ win because I already have as many shares of FTU as I want and do not want more (which I would get if FTU takes out WFC). I think WFC is a great banking concern and, as a shareholder of FTU, would indeed be delighted if the two combined. I just want some diversification in my banking portfolio. My question was how existing shareholders of WFC feel about a potential, future 'marriage' with FTU, as the article I cited notes as one possibility. The article notes that an earlier overture by FTU was rebuked. This does not mean it will in the future--but not being a shareholder of WFC, I do not have any information from that side. My pick of regional banks? Well, I do like FTU but for favorite, I'd have to say National Penn Bancorp (NPBC). This one might be too small for you to consider though Checkmate. Lynn
