[taxes] <<< but i don't like having to pay taxes NOW. if i got TXN stock instead of cash, i'd hold a good percentage until the profits were taxable as capital gains. i lose an extra 20% to taxes under the current deal.>>> Mark -- I'm aware of close to 4M shares that aren't being tendered, so I think TI won't get the 90% needed to avoid having to get shareholder approval. Getting a shareholder vote will take enough time to get us into 1998. For me, it's worth the wait. Pat
