So they slap you with a $1,500 assessment, and you have to postpone the monthly payment on your kid's braces and brown bag your lunches for a few weeks. I don't see much similarity to what the Q's done. The only people who seem to be getting "slapped" are the short-term option holders. This is hardly margin-call land here. Nobody else has anything immediately "on the line".
