Thank you as well, Lee. I'm doing okay; getting back almost to full strength. Still waiting on the operation....been playing golf better than I have in years so the sense of urgency is in conflict. More pressing, even, than my mother is my mother-in-law who is in her 70s and not expected to last through the year. Has not exactly been the House of Cheer around here. We shall get through all of this, it just seems to be a case of the "Hits just keep on comin'" right about now. Most of the family is very religious so everyone seems to have a built-in support mechanism. In the meantime the "other shoe has dropped" so many times one tends to think Imelda Marcos is around. There has been a heightened sense of concern for each other. I think if I put off my operation much longer other brother will fly out here and drag me to the hospital himself. Anyway all this has me position trading, which may be a good outcome in and of itself. I've been leaning on ANN's plus some Point and Figure. Trading across several markets as well to spread risk. If I had realized how easy it is to trade other markets than SP I would have jumped in a long time ago. Still not trading Beans, however. For that I think I would need Nemer to start a thread.
