Yeah, I thought it kinda strange myself (which was why I originally was being mischievous and posting the email and slides without the freeedgar.com link.. :0) I really don't know who filed those Form 425s, and to be frank, it's the first time I've ever seen that form. However, I thought it provided an interesting insight on the presentations we can expect the street analysts to be hearing next week. I wish both of them, Russell and Sarin, the best of success. I really do.. especially since every dollar that INSP recover's means 1.80 more upside in GNET valuation. Regards, Ron

I also think that the sheep on the InfoSpace site have to go. Their dorky logo needs help too. I'm still going to wear my Go2Net gear until InfoSpace comes up with something better.
