Bonnie -- here's something that illustrates the market mania: I recently contacted the 3 main credit reporting agencies, to get copies of my credit reports. In your credit report, it shows every company that ran a credit check on you. Last fall, I had to get my brokerage account changed to a margin account so that I could buy and sell options (puts!). I guess they have to make it a margin account in case you want to write options. Even though a margin account is a form of credit, they didn't bother to run a credit check on me, while the phone company did when I got a new number. That really boggles my mind - a utility cares more about your credit record than a brokerage! Paul McGinnis
