Yes, essentially what the bunch of druids are doing is shorting the volatility. The same exact computer program inside 1000-s of druids, with only minor variations. Which is the reason for the "spikes" - they all buy virtually at the same time. The PPT is a well propagated myth. The only true component to it is that they give tons of money to the druids whenever they lack it. -g- They make money as long as volatility goes down. Everything will go exactly to max pain on expiration week from now on, if it will deviate from that at all. You can take that to the bank.
