Well, at least I can now get quotes under the
old symbol. My buy orders aren't on my screen
though. All orders must go manual. :^(

Genzyme Tissue Repair (Nasdaq:GZTR) announced today that it has changed its
ticker symbol to GZTR from GENZL. The stock will continue to trade on the
Nasdaq National Market.

This change has been made in response to shareholder concerns regarding the
similarity of Genzyme Tissue Repair's old ticker symbol, GENZL, and Genzyme
General's ticker symbol, GENZ. Because a five-letter ticker symbol is not
compatible with all systems that publish stock quotes, confusion arose when
GENZL was sometimes shortened to GENZ. Genzyme Tissue Repair anticipates that
the new ticker, GZTR, will more readily differentiate its stock for shareholders.

Genzyme Tissue Repair is a leading developer of biological products for the
treatment of orthopedic injuries such as cartilage damage, and severe burns.
It is a division of Genzyme Corp. and has its own common stock intended to
reflect its value and track its performance.
