MB: Thanks for nice comments. You're right, it does take a bit of time. (g) I started the "secret disclaimer files" in issue one. After finishing the write-up, I still had to compose the stupid disclaimer. About half way through, I thought "nobody reads this poop, so why am I doing this?" I decided to insert a bit of humour. I actually sit there laughing at my own humour each month when I do it. (Shows how juvenile the mind is at this end) Most of my gang get a kick out of it, so it is now "institutionalized" (g) On another topic, I've been salivating over the internet stampede. Haven't done much yet, except donate a bit of dough to the bulls every month or two via a tiny "test short" of Yahoo! This is about as insane a situation as I've seen since Pressteck or Cott. Puts are priced appropriately (that is they are priced on the expectation of a big fall) so haven't done anything in that area. I suspect that when they let go, there will be little opportunity to climb aboard. Looking for something that might be the trigger but can't identify anything as of yet. Best, Earlie
