Yes, SI has changed and not for the better as far as their censorship ideas. I never said Henry wasn't a very smart man, and very knowledgeable. And yes, I believe this was the thread, since he held forth on it for so very long. I'm sorry, I never got acquainted with Josef. I'll poke around on my hard drive and see if I can come up with it. But it is all here, the ying and the yang. Glad Henry is still topside. ANd before you think I think derivs are from hell, I'd advise you of the fact I formerly made my living as a commodity broker...the home turf of "derivs" before the fancy ones he and his cronies thought up...in fact I'm so old in the commodities realm, I was a broker before there was anything but sugar options, and they only had those due to the prolific London sugar market contract...but that was another era...and LOTUS had only just then been invented, and a the first laptop was a heavy little awkward mother made by HP..but by jingo, I had a 2400 baud modem in that lap top...while everone else was busy taping together parts from commodore 64 and radio shack... ah, THOSE were the golden days of derivs... g_t
