Stephen, thanks. I saw that interview and remember him saying that the reason they like to split is to put the stock in as many investors hands as possible. I am not disputing that he said 35, I just can't remember. But I would not think that this means that the CEO wants to have his stock at 35 after the split. It just means that they like to keep it at around 35. Actually a statement that does not make much sense. I can remember plenty of times where the stock was higher than 35 even including an announced split. But whatever, 35 by the 20th sounds alright to me and then off to the races again and a split to keep that 35 intact. gg. Sonny
