W. Clinton,

-Off Topic/Last Post-

Please look up any basic stock-trading book under the subject the short sells. "Against the box" simply means that you borrow your own shares to short against, instead of doing it your broker. These are all basic terms, should be readily found in any relevant publications.

Good luck,
Ibexx
