Richard, Again I was just commenting on the bearsishness here as a possible contrary indicator. It was intended largely tongue in cheek. But now I have to add back John's bullishness so now i have a problem. mike

OT - vacation and AMAT-related ... Went on vacation for a week - barely read the papers. Dang! Big price surprise! The July 01 puts @ 47.5 that I grabbed in late June suddenly went in the money ... but at the (temporary) cost of my LTBH position. Vacation was on the Gulf Coast, complete with sailing (Sunfish, nothing large), lots of family, and beach-bumming. We orchestrated a fireworks show off the end of a 200-foot wharf which (so I've been told) entertained four miles of beach. I suspect several incipient cases of mortar envy, since we were launching up to three tubes at once. <heh, heh, heh ...> (Note to others - the best tool to light the really big mortar shells is a cigar. <g>) Nice break. I'll read and catch up later today. - Mitch
