Re: Jeff's <<Good luck to all, on an even field of play.>> Thanks for your good wishes, but I can't say the same to you. I have never seen such a whiney baby on SI until I started reading your posts. Are you kidding? You're going to embarrass yourself by calling the SEC on this "Msft rumor"? Do you think they really give a rat's ass? Do you really think anyone but us "girls" care what is put on these threads? Professionals read these thread for contrary indicators. Why don't you just get a life and stop embarrassing yourself with your constant "doomsday" outlook on Ascend? If you're short, fine. But like every other short I've ever encountered on these threads, I have yet to find one post of yours that shows any cogent analysis why anyone else in their right mind would be short Ascend at this point. BTW, what makes the "msft rumor" any different from your constant doom and gloom posts? If you weren't trying to influence others, why are you posting? I hope the "msft rumor" poster takes a preemptive strike and reports you to the SEC. Violation: being an annoying person.

To all : I heard from a friend who has a cousin that has a sister who dated that guy who became pretty important. Anyways, he told me to tell everyone on SI that if you buy tomorrow, the stock will open up because ASND has won every major contract being offered for the next fifty years. After hours has the stock trading at 343 1/2.....Pass it on NYK PS : this is slightly more believable than the Microsoft post.

Jeffery, is this really any different than the shorts out there who posted on this very thread the gloom and doom of ASND missing the so-called "whisper" number of .27, .28, etc.. The only people whispering these numbers were shorts, attempting to scare longs out of their stock, and hence drive the price down. Anyone who believes MSFT would be a suitor of ASND ought to have his head examined. I found thebeach's post to be quite humorous. How come you haven't threatened "action" against Maria Bartiromo for floating a much more believable rumor that LU would take ASND? This one actually moved the stock up. Of course, if ASND is up today, and Maria announces a possible takeover of ASND by MSFT, than I'll eat my words. Me thinks, I'll be hungry...
