Thanks Tom (off topic)

>>My problem is that I fit into different age categories on the various parameters. Not sure what that means!!<<

hmmm...I guess it depends on the state of your 'heart, mind, body, and soul'. Oh yeah, money too.

>>I think that one of the ironies for me is that when I was studying in England the only limitation on my capacity to drink was my wallet.<<

That's why I stuck with beer - and I'm still stuck with beer :-) You have my list of why beer is better than women jokes, don't ya?

>>Hope that you've survived the market<<

Looks like I survived like many others did - barely. In this game, one 'OH SH*T' trade can sure wipe out 10 'at a boy' trades. And mine was really an 'OH SH*T' from the get go. Dumb and dumber - not only did I miss a good winning trade, I almost wiped myself out (KLIC as you know, since you answered my plea for help) You are absolutely right - keep each trade the same # or $ amount. If you have a lot of profit, take it off the table and treat yourself. I'm learning money management the hard way. Fortunately, I'm still in the game and I AM going to make it.

Take care Tom,
