Sunny,

Initially, I was for the Godzilla thread. And I still think its a good thing, but unfortunately I believe it is having a negative impact on this fine thread because it is causing many of the most thoughtful writers on this thread to split their time.

I understand your concern but don't agree. I'm participating in both threads. If the same topics were covered in only one thread it wouldn't take any less time to respond to the issues. It's simply a matter of which folder contains the issues and the responses to them.

Of all the arguments I've seen about whether or not to pursue two folders, the one that doesn't hold any water for me is that people already have enough folders to keep track of. Which is better, having one folder with 10,000 posts or two folders with 5,000 posts in each?

Folks, we've simply had something very similar to a stock split here. We'll have twice as many folders with half as many posts in each. No problem.

Re options, consider yourself fortunate that Q has provided you with a lesson about the high risk of sure things before you took the plunge. My first options play, naked calls, was a huge winner, and it led me to believe I can do it again. So far that's cost me a bunch of money.
