FL,

Since this is such a friendly, respectful thread, I've got a suggestion worth considering.

I've noticed that there is potential for friction when newcomers fail to make a distinction between the risk of having the stock called in a tax-deferred account and a taxable account. You might want to consider adding something to the header page explaining that it's ill-advised for newcomers to assume everyone here is ignorant of the tax consequences if the stock is called. There is surely a better way to phrase it, but you get the drift. When someone barges in without thinking everything through, participants would be able to politely and effortlessly refer the newcomer to the header to fully appreciate the thread's perspective about risk.

Just an idea.
