Keith,

I was dealing on the conceptual level. If you want to counter that with specific detail which must in some cases be reconciled with the concept for the concept to be true, then I would just note that buying up the entire float 43 billion dollars and counting, which would buy roughly 860,000,000 shares, the downward spiral of the daily price of the outstanding stock would be somewhat attenuated, if you catch my drift. All that would be left is Bill's stock and mine, and of course the stock of a few close friends.

And of course it was you who pronounced the death knell of the company that is why I pointed out the option alternative.

Sort of a safety valve on a safety valve. That, you will have to agree did require a little bit of good management planning.
