Pat, seems to me, from this article, that ASND will almost certainly give back some of its recent gains. I'm sure most here feel these gains were merger related. I'd have to predict a down day tomorrow, probably multi-point.

Pat,

I'd have to agree with Gary (gbh). I think Ashby's comments are a mistake for stockholders and that much of the recent run-up is do to speculation. At the same time I also think that many believe that ASND doesn't have a complete enough story to be one of the "big 4" US vendors...which of course would mean more acquisitions by ASND. This causes me to think back to the SRA purchase and what that did to ASND. In the end I don't see these comments as a positive. It positions ASND against LU, NT, and CSCO with a product portfoloio that has many too many holes in it.

Pat, that article is dated the 12th (London time). It came out before the market opened this morning. Thus, will have zero impact tomorrow.

Pat,
I promise that I had not seen the article when I posted this message. Actually, I have stated this in a PM to others a couple of days ago.
