Kevin, and my other "Go2Netrillionaires" cyberpals... As one of the first Go2Neters who welcomed me to this thread over a year ago, it's good to hear from you. It was also great to finally meet you and your wife at the GNET shareholder's meeting. Many of us "longs" have "fallen in love" with the incredible company of Go2Net. Not with the "stock" itself, but with it's management team, and their vision for the future. Like Sarkie, I too was incredibly shocked and dumbfounded with the the news that came out today. And I also suddenly felt a little bit like an "orphan." Sort of like if in my parents at put me up for adoption, without even asking me if that was okay with me. On the other hand, I have been doing a little DD on INSP for some time now, and believe all the old "gang" will become "Trillionaires" much sooner in the years to come, following this incredible merger, if they hold their new INSP shares after the deal is approved in the 4th quarter. And heck...Russ, John, and Paul Allen (to name just a few) must have thought this was the wisest course for them to take. They are all people into who's hands I have entrusted a considerable amount of my personal "treasure," and with whom I have trusted to "do the right thing." They are people whom I believe are all considerably smarter and wiser than I am, and will do what's right by me, and fellow "investors" in their vision for the future. So, I'm "going with the flow" here, and will wait to see what happens, and how it all unfolds. "Change" is not just the "spice" of life, it is the very "stuff-of-life." (Stuff) happens. I'm just going to try to "deal with it," move on, and think of it not as a "problem" but an "opportunity." Roger (a "long" until the end...and perhaps new beginning) PS. Here's just a little more "info" for this "space" (the final? frontier). cnbc.com
