<but if they are called, which would you have rather owned....? the stock, which would have had to moved up about 6 points from here or the 2 point move in the converts?> Actually it would be a 20 point increase in the bond or 25%. Remember, I don't expect the bonds to be called. They floated the issue because they needed the money at the time and I believe they need the cash even more now. Noam does not have access to more cash when he needs it and believe me, he needs it now. As a substantial owner of MRVC stock, I for one am hoping for substantial success in my investment. However, a more conservative play IMO would be the converts for those looking for a good rate of return while waiting for the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. RASCAL
