i'm sorry BC, i did not see that. you would think that the existing holders of GMH would be pissed (not to mention that the pensioners ALREADY hold about 300mm shares of GMH). they seem not to be, though, as the stock is trading up today. guess everybody is still counting on Murdoch buying GMH.

Cheers
