We keep wondering who got the best deal and who did what- at what time- in buying companies to merge into BNEZ. Who was the strict professor and who was the student? CompasData:It's been said that "BNEZ announced today it has completed all negotiations for the acquisition of CompassData." I wonder when they signed the final documentation, very important. Before or after the RS? If before the RS, were those shares also affected by the RS? *************************************** FINAL EXAM ----- It was the final examination for an introductory English course at the local university. The examination was two hours long, and exam booklets were provided. The professor was very strict and told the class that any exam that was not on his desk in exactly two hours would not be accepted and the student would fail. A half hour into the exam, a student came rushing in and asked the professor for an exam booklet. "You're not going to have time to finish this," the professor stated sarcastically as he handed the student a booklet. "Yes I will," replied the student. He then took a seat and began writing. After two hours, the professor called for the exams, and the students filed up and handed them in. All except the late student, who continued writing. A half hour later, the last student came up to the professor who was sitting at his desk preparing for his next class. He attempted to put his exam on the stack of exam booklets already there. "No you don't, I'm not going to accept that. It's late." The student looked incredulous and angry. "Do you know WHO I am?" "No, as a matter of fact I don't," replied the professor. "DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?" the student asked again. "No, and I don't care." replied the professor with an air of superiority. "Good," replied the student, who quickly lifted the stack of completed exams, stuffed his in the middle, and walked out of the room. ****************************** I wonder if the 'shorts' are in the stack of completed (stock) exams?
