Thread,

Sorry not to have responded to a number of posts over the
past couple of days. I haven't had a chance to look at
SI since my last post.

From the behavior of VVUS today and yesterday, I'd say that
Doug's number was right and mine was wrong.

I personally would trust Doug's page rather than my rough
and ready calculations, which I did in haste on a hand
calculator. I apologize; I should have stated that in
my posts. I DID say buyer beware, I think (I hope).
Anyhow, that wouldn't excuse posting a mistake, but
I hope no one took me at my word without checking.
If you did, don't. Bad idea.

I will check again tomorrow when I have more time to
see if the closing parity was 25 by my calculation.
Unfortunately, I don't have the earlier numbers recorded
to check my posted calculations.

I've posted in the past on how parity is calulated, as have
others. Perhaps someone has a reference. I haven't read
the whole thread tonight, so maybe it's already been posted.

Sorry if I mislead anyone. Buyer beware!

Spots
