IceCube, I didn't appreciate the ISP angle. I think an ISP customer is worth about $1,200, give or take $300, based on the market cap of ELNK and MSPG, and their subscriber bases. If so, that would mean that would mean that POST must be paying something like $30 million to acquire these ISP's. Did POST announce the terms of the acquisitions? Yes, you are correct that if the stock remains highly overvalued, then they can continue to acquire more companies, ISP or otherwise, using stock. I guess it depends in part on how well the fly-fishing guide who became their M&A officer does his job.
