Cancelled my conclusions re Levin/McCain S.1940 bill ...
... and plan to review conclusions re employee stock options.

My confidence in my understanding of this option stuff is now shaken, since I ran across "Section-by-Section Analysis of S. 1940 Ending the Double Standard for Stock Options Act", on Senator Carl Levin's web site. levin.senate.gov

The S.1940 Analysis does not use the word "grant", so I'm no longer sure S.1940 addresses the option grant expense, the 'SFAS 123 expense' .. but the Buffett article implies a Levin/McCain bill does address that issue. I trust what Mr. Buffett says, so I suspect the S.1940 Analysis could go a bit further than it does. I'll be drilling deeper until the understanding has returned.

There wouldn't be more than one Levin/McCain bill re options, would there? <g>
