I don't know where the bottom is but it is still a world class company and the March '99 strike of $17.50 is selling for 1 7/8 [call option]. That has to be a good buy if you want some leverage and believe that the winter will bring on higher prices. Selling now at roughly 10 times forward earnings after the downgrade at $1.57. The premium puts it at a very good value at this price.
The old adage.... buy at the darkest hour....question is... is this the darkest hour... I think so.

Insidertrader just issued a sell today (7/30) on the stock. They said that they look for further declines and wouldn't get back in until the industry shows improvement.
