Hi luc, I have some AMAT Jan 25's poots that I think would cover a good piece of my clownish tech stock position if there was a typical semi downturn. I would be happy to see those expire worthless. They doubled up, usually I would sell half at that point (keep insurance payments for later) but lack the discipline, something I'm improving on though with experience. And, of course, the ability for poots to deliver in real "adjustments" lowers IMO. Numerous announcements of new fabs being built is a sure tech stock sell signal. Fortunately we haven't had too many of those.-g- SVG got bought out a while ago, there has been some consolidation in that industry. A very expensive one to run with double whammy risk. pearly.

now THIS is yet another election circus gem: It appears that the designer of the now-infamous butterfly ballot in Palm Beach County, Florida, recently voted against a manual recount in an even more closely contested race in her own county. The Wall Street Journal reports that only two months ago, Elections Supervisor Theresa LePore voted to deny a manual recount for Beverly Green, a GOP candidate who lost a state house primary by a mere 13 votes. "It wasn't that close," LePore explained then. "The manual count is historically only when it's in single digits." LePore joined with fellow Democrat Carol Roberts earlier this week to approve a manual recount of the county's 463,000 Presidential votes-based on a sampling that indicated as many as 1,900 votes may not have been picked up in earlier counting.
