you misunderstood what i had meant/said....i could have phrased it better, i never said there was a done deal or that there was an announcement, i meant that we all know that there is talk of an agreement being worked on, and i was trying to be hopeful in saying that now was a time that would be good for an announcement , just wishful thinking in the current economic enviroment....it was just a casual comment on the volume of shares
