Skeets, No, I blew out the last of my long a handful of small net cos, including Verisign, and long IIX puts, a couple of weeks ago. I was semi-smart on this one. In truth, had I been short the big cos. that make up the IIX, I would have gotten killed. However, long the puts, I was able to overcome their disappearance and much more with huge gains in a couple of my smaller cos. So, my theory that the big internuts would underperform relative to the small internuts was nutty. My technique, however, was pristine and made me some money. <G> MB
