Well I'm holding mostly because i don't have a burning need for the cash elsewhere right now and there may be some forgiveness between now and xmas. it's just a shame, i bot in the last time it was at 21 and it was slowly and surely working so well and now this. if figures i came across are accurate then the R guy made about 100 M on the sale over what he paid for B*. obviously some of that is gone now (on paper). they tell us it will be accretive to earnings so i guess in time it can eat up the charges and hopefully the core business will pull the stock thru. just wasn't expecting a stunt like this from this co. merry xmas to all you coffee drinking book buying babbage going shoppers........tomster
