John, [text added] I charted the closing VIX. The highest intraday high
was 60 AFTER removing the fateful month in 1987. Here's the
period I removed, containing the highest VIX...

You can see it took a couple of weeks for VIX to get normal.
I'm not saying we get that again. October '87 was totally
different. I have discussed Bernie Schaeffer's requirement
