Sounds like you and I would both get hurt by a new accounting method for stock options Well, maybe not hurt. The things can't be worth less than what we pay for them. Unlike real shares, for example. We would just lose the benefit of so much enjoyable help ;) But where we will really get hurt is by losing an advantage over the Long Term Bag Holders. As long as they think they are getting a real bargain they will be scooping up our shares as fast as we can exercise 'em. Somebody is going to fleece 'em. Might as well be us. John
