Welcome to the dark side my friend! You have picked some real stomach turners in XCIT and LCOS. Hang in there when the going gets rough because I have found that my lowest moments were right before they REALLY turned around and went my way.(I know kinda like finding your keys in the last place ya look, but its still true!) My biggest mistake when I started to short was getting too scared and covering too soon. As I look back if I HAD held onto my shorts that I knew were dogs, I would have made nothing short of a fortune! As it is I am still a working stiff. c):-) Good Luck! Cowboy Brett
