The WSJ article is, IMO, another example of no-news news. From the article: "Alta Vista warns investors in its registration filing that a 60-year-old securities law may effectively prevent the company from being purchased after the IPO..." which "...could make them a less attractive stock, because takeover speculation and industry consolidation are major factors fueling the current Internet stock fever." Good riddance to any "investors" this "news" would scare off. It probably never occured to the "reporter" that CMGI/Alta Vista can still consolidate with others if they desired. I can't believe these bozos get paid. SAS
