Patrick,

Re: Margin Calls:

Do you have any idea what % of people or their stock held is
on margin these days.. I didn't pay much attention to it lately..
until your remarks.. and my broker friend has friend that was
expecting to be basically sold out today I believe..

After you get your call, you have a few days to dance around with
it don't you, which indicates more selling in the next couple
of days if much stock is on margin... also begets more calls..
kinda of slow torture..

good luck..
