Does anyone know the date the S&P began trading at $25/tick, and why did CME make that change?

Lee, this is not to you but to OJ, coug and anyone else that wishes to go this way. Personally, I don't care what the hell is going on in Washington. Your MDA thread was dropped by me because it's too sensitivity oriented. As Tom mentioned, we so not argue here; frankly someone on the opposite side of the trade really is taking my money if I'm wrong. We aren't trying to slam anyone, we aren't overtly sensitive about a trade gone bad, we are trying to deal with our mistakes and successes like adults as far as we are able. If you and OJ and coug and so forth want to debate the excesses of the Clinton Administration or the Republican reaction well then that's fine. Could you guys please do it somewhere else? I know I'm the first guy to post off topic; but I just got slammed over on MDA on this issue and I'll be damned if I post there again....if it continues here then you guys can go on your merry way without me here as well.

I have to apologize. Of course you have every right to discuss whatever you like. Witnessing the action on MDA over the past day convinced me that this thread is more for me because there is less quibbling about BS issues. I sensed, right or wrong, a degradation and I reacted to it. Of course you guys are entitled to determine the direction of the thread as much as anyone else and if you decide the direction is along the recent topic then that is as it shall be.
