(and apologies if I've asked before, I probably have with each "tranche"...) Although Peter had indicated he was a bit tired of the whining about it...and he has had the good sense not to be involved in this mess--bypassing the stock I believe, here was his thought on the subject. Message 7705904 I also bring this up because at this one closes in on a buck, investors should condider the possibility of delisting to the BB...but that is not in anyones interest I see. So...these occasional large blocks could be anything, not really mini-tranches like I've imagined them to be-- rather, any shorting would be a gradual thing--as evidenced by the very gradual steady decline in the stock. By the way, I somehow missed it, but I understand that Ariad's Michael Gilman is now at Biogen...here is the PR for that: biz.yahoo.com By the way, I appreciated a recent comment Rick made about darts versus good business plans. I just am not quite ready to swap my Ariad for Biogen...but I get a little closer every day;-) I decided to leave this off the aria board, I am sure the boys on Yahoo read that, and if they get scared off, why, there will be nobody but smallcapsonline to buy these pitiful shares...
