Hi LPS5; Re forward conversion... Can you enlighten me (us) as to what the differnce would be between that and an artificial short position in the options market? I thought that they established a long the stock, long a put, and short a call position, with the options struck at the same price and same expiration. But it seems that it is more complicated than that. (Please don't use any long words, but what are the regulatory implications...) Thanks in advance, -- Carl
