-------- Sorry but yet again that is incorrect the fees are not coming out of your own pocket. Especially since I have already referenced that distributions have not been affected. And further to that the individual unitholder who takes the rights and converts there is no brokerage fee to him personally as it is absorbed by the trust. And again the trust distributions for the next month are not impacted one bit as you claimed ------ 1. I assume that if you own the trust, and the trust is realizing costs, then you are effectively paying them. 2. You are saying that since the distribution did not decrease then you are not paying them. I believe that my "assumption" is more correct that what you are "seeing", maybe the distribution would have gone up. 3. You have to agree that there are costs/fees and that someone must be paying them. If you are in a card game, you look around to see who the sucker is and don't see one, its a fair assumption that its you seems to carry some weight here. Scott
