PRICE ACTION: I agree with Sector's comments--LONG TERM things are absolutely coming up roses. And I can almost smell the first of the roses now.....(and there are others)! The selloff is not exactly unprecedented. All kinds of tech stocks are sold off before and after earnings REGARDLESS of how wonderful the earnings. The coverage I have seen of MRVC earnings in the press has talked about missing earnings by .01 The price action is very directly following the Nasdqaq composite and the SOXX. If it goes up, we go up. Same story down. When the spinoff story gets more widely understood, and when there is some atmosphere of less than total crisis in the market, we will have our day. It's just not likely to be today..... Best wishes, Jim

Bought some Oct 75 Calls! By then LUMN IPO should really start kicking. Anyone else feeling "lucky" and a little reckless? Dayal
