S0 -- which way should I go? Sell my oil service stocks -- down more than 60% since I bought them -- and take a nice tax loss for '98, or keep them in my portfolio for my children to inherit (since the stocks in question are not likely to get back to the price level at which I bought them in what remains of my lifetime)?

You "young things" can take the long view, but geezerettes like myself have to take the short view.
