I too am in "rapid research mode". One site that has options prices:

futuresource.com

My thoughts:

*I hope that Y2K is a total hoax, and that life as we know it continues uninterrupted. I hope that the earth can avoid the suffering that the doomsday people predict.

*However, if Y2K is a BIG problem, I want some kind of a hedge to protect myself, as I assume my work/income will slow down greatly.

*I plan to buy a very small amount of deep out of the money silver/oil options now ( Dec. 99 ) and in 6 months or so ( expire after Y2K ) ......

*If Y2K is a hoax, I will be happy to see my options expire worthless & continue life as I know it.

Good luck to all,
