Like many I was holding out hope of a higher offer, but it is now apparent that $1.52 is as much as we will get, and we won't actually get it until mid January.

So who else is thinking of selling at a discount of half a cent to get the money sooner? There are other bargains out there I would like to take advantage of, and at any rate, I could save more in interest on my margin loan over a couple of weeks than I would forego on that last half cent.
