Brice, I tend to avoid the smaller stocks as put choices because most of the them do not have listed put contracts. And the really stupid ones, like Broadcast.com and Ebay (you will ebay my commands, market lemmings) tend to fall apart before puts are listed. But, another factor has been that the larger stocks, until very recently, have been much more overpriced than the smaller stocks. Also, a small co. may be overpriced on a per share basis, but its total capitalization may be something attainable someday. Unlikely, but possible. While Amazon and Yahoo as operating cos. will never be worth their huge market caps. Just can't happen. Too much cap, not enough business potential. I have not read the 10Q on Tava. But I may take a look this weekend. MB
