When exactly are they expecting the stock to hit $34 again based on current plans and projections? I think I'd argue that the Google deal essentially proves that Icahn was right about self destructive behavior. Yahoo either should sell to MS or clearly demonstrate they have great plans and prospects for the future. The Google deal flies in the face of both options. <br><br>Can I borrow some marshmallows?
