I seem to remember a discussion a few days back about ECILF being a potential acquirer. I think we decided it was unlikely because ECILF did not have the financial wherewithal to do the deal in a way that fairly valued PAIR.

I would imagine the remaining positive action in PAIR today is a result of the IPO - related DSL hype. PAIR was mentioned as being a player on CNBC in connection with that. While RTHM and other small, pure play DSL service providers are not likely PAIR customers, the challenge they pose to RBOCs and large CLECs might encourage same to roll out faster. And since the latter are, indeed, PAIR customers, that should help.

As for our DJ reporter; any time there's manipulation, someone loses. I wasn't one of the losers (happened to be making breakfast when all this started), but I agree that the perp should be strung up. It certainly raises the issue of security at the news services; I think that may be the more profound story.

Hope both Longs and Shorts have survived the day OK.

Cheers and Good Luck, Tuck
