Elmer: He told me in a post months ago that puts were the equivalent of going "short" and that he had gone "short" by buying puts. I took it to mean that the "" somehow mean short-like when positioned around the word short.

Elmer, Re:"I'm sure Yousef can speak for himself but I for one have been following his posts and I don't remember his ever talking about puts, only a short position. Furthermore, you might post your positions here as well. It'll give you more credibility when asking others to do the same. You don't want to be like Darbes do you?" Elmer, you have a selective memory regarding Yousefs postings. As for me my two largest positions are in AMD and rambus as follows: 10K of AMD long average price $16 -17 (of which most recent 3K was a couple of months ago at 16 3/8 and I posted that). 100 Jan 2002 $40 calls that i sold for 3 7/8. 3200 shares of Rambus average price $101-102. I also have small positions in NSM, SBUX, DIS, LU, LSI, MCHP, DIIG, CPQ, WMT, CDN. Lets see how forthright Paul Smith really is. Regards, Kash Johal
