Steve, now you've got me blushing... Didn't intend to showboat. The take-home was that options 'minutia' (required to predict such phenomena) takes a back seat to practical trading skills IMO. The odds-players care about "delta-neutral" blah, blah, blah -- effective, but emotionless. OTOH if someone expresses an interest in traveling, I'll offer a roadmap. Hey, I might even bring corn on the cob. <g> Regards, Alan EDIT: You're dealing with a guy who lived on umbrella drinks in college. (Well, okay, whiskey in the winter.) The shape of a baseball cap bill is my way of measuring intelligence. <g>
