Mike, thanks for the link. I wish I was half as nimble as that poster. :) Had a great day sailing - warm, winds 10 to 20 knots and helpful currents [to get currents to HELP you, you have to sail in the direction of the current, not so different from trading stocks]. It was good to get away from the computer. Having intermittent cable modem problems, but AT&T customer service is helpful, patient and polite. No blame shifting! They'll send a technician Wednesday. Gottfried KO will start reporting stock options as expense next month. Coke's decision, announced by Doug Daft, the company's chairman and chief executive, and backed by Warren Buffett, the influential investor who is a director and prominent shareholder of the company, is still likely to send a shudder through many US companies, most of which strongly oppose the tougher treatment of options. biz.yahoo.com
