Wow...can't believe we have come so far so fast on Ashland. I thought this move could take years, not months! Of course, I knew it was worth quite a lot more than $5-$6 a share....easiest pick I ever made.

wouldnt buy untill the end of october, after that the hurcules aquition should be accurtive to earnings. If this ever makes it back to single digits buy w/both hands. book value of $48.00 p/sh,makes this compelling takeover target, as well as insuruance that it could be worth more bankrupt than what one might currently pay for it.
