Hello Porter I'm wondering if you can help me?? I would like to find a site that lists all the options available and their leaps. I hate going through the paper and having only the active ones listed. Also I trade most of my shares on the net through Greenline. I would like to stay away from calling their office to ask which months and prices are available on the ones I'm interested in. Dave

You really take the cake So you can't get confirmation right away on your exercise's and you whine that its all because the Exchange screwed up, come on anyone with any type of system experience (as you have noted previously that you have) would know s**t happens. How many times have you exercised in the past 19 years and this type of problem has happened before, I'll bet dollars to donuts that you can't even remember the last time it did, get real, given the number of things that can go wrong, this is small potatoes. How about whining about something worthwhile - like why you couldn't call markets on your "z" leaps by hand, I mean how many calls and puts are on the Z leaps, 6 maybe? - geez! As a side note it is my understanding that you can exercise at any time during the life of the contract (american exercise) so long as you made notice that you were exercising, instead you choose not to accept auto-exercise and along with every other yahoo wait till the last minute on expiry friday to submit your notice, and then whine about the system being bogged down, typical!
