Tom, yup still got the puts they were looking really sweet 10 minutes ago, I thought there was a magnet at that first trading halt figure but things have turned so we'll see.

You walk 10 miles a day in L.A.- thought that could kill you

Tom: Re:Where is everyone,

It is worth noting that there is a direct relationship between the number of posts and the direction of the market as you and others have pointed out. During a downturn the posts decline and viseversa. It would appear that the majority of posters on SI are long with an adversion to playing the short side. Looking over the history of the thread it would seem that the threads get most bearish with the least bullish posts just before the bottom, like this thread and ideas is now. Could be the bottom is close.

Your plan as you have outlined it seems to be a no-brainer, if only I wasn't so "fully invested" already I would join in.
BTW. Really want to acknowledge you for sharing so much and picking up the slack in the absence of Ike and Kevin etc.

regards,

Ray
P.S. Uncovered my Citrix shares and added to my long @ $60.25
