Not short: puts. Cf #reply-10824983 - I considered closing my puts yesterday, but when AOL held up too well I figured I'd wait a little (#reply-10825404); lucky guess. I likely will close out the bulk of my position today after the requisite dead-cat bounce (88 to 77 to 84 to ???) settles out -- but not because I think the stock's priced fairly, but because I think there's still enough foolishness in the market to give it support. Will retain a small position in out-of-the-money puts just in case reality sets in some day. -mb
