Muhney, What was your opinion of CEO Eric Hippeau's appearance on CNBC's "Squawk Box" this morning? This is only the second time I've watched this show. Is it normal for them to grill the CEO's with a guest host as well as their regular host? I thought Hippeau held up well under the cross questioning. He seemed to be saying that ZD was up due to excitement on their exercise of their option to buy ZD/TV and other recent favorable news. When asked about the proposed spin-off of the cable-tv element, he said the filing was on schedule for a January IPO. I wonder what the effect will be on the stock today since he didn't have any "bombshell" news to explain yesterday's stock action? Thanks again for letting us know he was going to be on Squawk Box.
