I don't see you posting to the PAIR thread anymore. (To my great disappointment). Tim, 1. Thanks for your comments. 2. I posted on the PAIR thread for a while, but I didn't seem to have anything to add. Frankly, it takes an intense amount of work to follow ASND so closely. As it is a large holding, it makes sense to do the spade work and to post the results. However, I could not find the time to do anywhere near as much research on PAIR (or to focus as much on that stock). Hence, no posts. Gary Korn
