>>until I got the last three lines<<

That did kinda take the glow off it. -g- On the bright side I think he got the message. The real problem is markets that don't operate in an orderly fashion. From what I've seen none of the online services did very well last week and the ease of access people have come to expect is imho a contributing factor. It used to be I'd have to read the morning paper to see how my investments were doing. Now in a matter of minutes and mouse clicks I get a real time quote, see the price dropping, panic!! and put in a sell order. Then the next day, do just the opposite. I'm sure this is progress. It used to take until the next day just to panic. -g- Then the broker would tell me to get a grip the price is up again and the net result - nothing done. Don't get me wrong. I like the new way better. And never did like that broker's advice. But like anything new it's bound to have unforseen flaws and shortcomings.
