If you actually have specific reasons for not wanting the merger, I'm guessing that there's someone to write to at the FTC or DOJ or whatever other government agencies have to approve these mergers. If they decide that the merger would harm competition, they can (must?) reject the merger. ----- Joe Hourcle Principal Software Engineer Solar Data Analysis Center Goddard Space Flight Center [insert disclaimer here about these being personal comments, and not those of my company or place of work]
