LoF,

You've shown a lot of class through all this. Now let's get down to business:

Here's a little tidbit from Wednesday's Option Investor newsletter. It's a put-sale play on INSP:

INSP - InfoSpace.com $182.43 *** E-nabler! ***

InfoSpace.com provides private label solutions for content and
commerce to Websites and Internet appliances. The company's
affiliate network include a number of online giants such as
America Online, Microsoft Network and Lycos. The cornerstone of
InfoSpace.com's content and commerce services is its nationwide
yellow pages and white pages directories. In addition to its
directory services, the company also distributes other valuable
information in order to help web users locate people, places and
things in the real world.

InfoSpace.com provides services for a unique area of cyber-space.
The Internet is best known for providing information and allowing
communication. InfoSpace.com helps improve the quality of these
activities for Web sites and their customers. Their services are
utilized by more than 2,500 consumer Web sites, e-tail merchants
and wireless communications companies. They also have a number of
infrastructure tools to boost their own brand identity.

The potential of this company and the technical outlook for the
issue are both favorable. The opportunity to own the stock at a
discounted price is one of the benefits of this conservative
strategy.
