Tom,

Sorry, I am having ISP problems, and my previous message got cut off rather abruptly...

You stated that being short the put is equivalent to being long the stock. That strategy works well during a continuing bull market. That concerns me, given today's high market valuations. Have you refined your strategy since '90 to reduce the risk? I'm not trying to predict the market here, but if nothing else it seems like we will have great volatility. Do you ever hedge your short puts by buying puts farther out?
