*OT* Hiya Sowbug,(new shareholder?) I ain't doin' a lotta toilet bowl scrubbin' but I get the concept. I take it you are a new shareholder in ASND? Me too, just jumped in in November. Let me welcome you and ALL THE OTHER NEW SHAREHOLDERS to the best durn thread at SI, IMHO (that's "in my humble opinion"). You'll find a lot of great info about the company on this site, and there is also a "news only" site for ASND in case you are interested. They run the gamut here; from breaking news (faster than the news services in some cases), through people betting on where the price of the stock will be at some point in the future, on down to people screaming for the stock to boogie at 3:50 p.m. All of 'em except me and Jeff and Hal and the Bald Man From Mars are multi-millionaires that completely understand WAN (wide area networks) and all the other nifty stuff that ASND is involved in. (I'm kidding.) The "old timers" have been very receptive to the new people, and we all hope that you have a gigantic position in the stock and are planning on holding it overnight. I've learned a couple of basics on the "on-line manners", one of which is to put "OT" (off topic) at the top of your message if it doesn't relate specifically to the topic, which is ASND. Also, don't feel intimidated if you see words you don't understand, you can ask around and probably get an answer. Don't be shy...there's stuff I'm sure I can learn from you. not cleaning stuff though. best, pete
