Hi Pham: I don't intend to sell any of my stock. SMTC is the best company I can find to own. I, like Jeff Bond, love this stock. I even like it better than THQI (2nd best). Actually, THQI probably has better appreciation potential than SMTC, just as Todd suggests, but I know the semiconductor industry better than games. I'm an electrical engineer. I will definitely uncover my stock before February. But I like the idea of getting a little options income. Right now the options are out of the money. I'll buy them back at the bottom of a TA stochastic indicator. It is likely that this, in combination with the premium erosion will allow me to take a small profit (about $400). This will pay for the brand new mountain bike that I just bought my wife as a present. If it doesn't work out, and I have to pay a higher price than I was able to get in writing the contracts, that's OK. I'll be glad to cover to keep my nicely appreciated shares. Either way, the psychology works for me -- I'm happy. Go SMTC! Jerry
