Terrific Dude.
I guess my contest portfolio will suffer today,
I've been trying to reduce my ariaw's for the
last week (as time runs out on these baby's I'd
rather just have aria). I got in these goofy
things from 3/16ths to as high as 3/8ths last
fall...most at 1/4. I've gotten rid of half of
them so far...but today, when the bid was 3/16ths
I mistakenly entered a market order.

Oh you can bet the other MM grabbed those.
And down to 1/8ths the bid went. Whoops!
Only a couple hundred dollar mistake, but
those mistakes add up. And now my fake portfolio
which has a huge number of ariaw is going to take
a hit, heh heh.

(fyi ariaw expire in May...most likely worthless,
and I should really have not put them in the contest)
if I could do it over again I'd have put in gztc or
xoma--which I own now.
