In general, I agree with you, Buzz.
Of late, there were a lot of get-rich-quick sentiments expressed here on the ABTX thread.
But I keep on going back to Dr T's opening comments at the Annual Meeting last year, which went sorta like: If you're here for the right reasons, we welcome you. If you're here for the wrong reasons, please sell your stock and move on.
Absent some showing that Dr T and crew did *not* try their damnedest to get a buy-in/buy-out deal, those who are here "for the right reasons" will hang in there. And the others will move on, all the while holding their heads high for having had the gall to try for the fast money, but understanding full well the risk they assumed in the process.
Of course, a few will whine. And that is to be expected, too, I guess. At least, maybe they will move on so that they are not forced to listen as Dr T says, on Feb 22nd, "If you're here for the right reasons, we welcome you."
