Michael - you're absolutely on the ball regarding expensing options. Coke, Amazon and many other companies 'get it'. Today the country's largest pension fund, TIAA-CREFF, sent a letter to the CEOs of the largest ~2000 companies stating their strong desire to see option expensing.

There are some here and elsewhere that continue to do the non-expensing jig, completely oblivious to the 9.0 earthquake mocking the markets.

How about just eliminating options all together? Why not give stock directly (if anyone wants equity any more) - an 'option' much less open to abuse...and abuse is what options came to be all about.

(and as for today: July 5th redux (i.e. vicious dead cat bounce) ...especially in light of the after hours news from AOL)
