TJ, regarding ASCT, call me naive, but I guess I wonder whether any company spokesman would or could have any other answer regarding rumours at this stage of a takeover.

IOM my sordid tale. ... I had a limit 7 5/8 sell order at the close. Multiple trades were executed near close at the price of 7 5/8. The final sale was at 7 9/16 but I did not get filled. Called Schwab...they say what probably happened is that the ASK never reached 7 5/8. The real problem now is that I am glad it did not fill. Heavy buying at the close seems to indicate more upward momentum to come tomorrow. I would like to let my 1K shares run. Can they now come back to me (say 2 days later) and decide that I don't now own the stock because the sell order should have been executed today? What happens if I have bigger profits by then? Somebody "been there, done that" already? Thanks Merg
