I am still on margin, though it is a small percentage of
my portfolio. I used it to buy YHOO; so far so good.

Re: margin. Lots of people buy a little on margin -- not margining to their eyeballs. Margin debt was what, $285 billion last week? Does that sound right? I can't see that we have squeezed more than a fraction of that out of the market yet. For people fully invested going into the plunge there is also the temptation to buy on margin thinking this is the buying opportunity of a lifetime.
