May the fleas of a thousand camels....... ;)

Yeah, in retrospect long puts look real nice. But I remember you mentioned previously that you bought them out of the money?

Wouldn't you get better downside protection with itm puts? I would think you could sell them at a small loss if a recovery started right after purchase?

Guess it depends on the level of protection vs insurance premium you pay

Buying puts was really smart, Rocketman. Good going.
