Dear Zeev, posting this here because it'S rather general. Would like to hear your opinion on this: watched Japan and found out there's an odd seasonal pattern. In early January there's often a local-low for each year. I couldn't resist because I also think that 7 years of recession is enough anyway <g>. Ok, I entered a position in index Call-LEAPS 14000 on the Nikkei 225. Could you pls. tell me what is your opinion on the Japanese market ? Still AFC ?? best regards CROSSY

Zeev, I looked in all the toy stores but could not find that ZeeB FizzB. Maby next year. But I have another sure fire idea for you to use your inventing know how on. Like that hoola hoop of the 50's, a simple plastic thing that already exist, and with a little twist to fill a need. In my advancing age the fluid in my eyes is loosing some of the stuff that does the lubricating. Not enough oil in the tear drops. So I buy those natural tears eye drops at drug store, the ones without the get-the-red-out ingredance, so can use as often as wishes, but only problem is that everytime I point the tip of the eye drop bottle at my eyes I get the message that a sharp object is going to hurt my eye, and I turn away. Hard for me to counter with thoughts those instincts that have taken millions of years for humans to develope. So here is a possible simple solution: Need to see that there is a barrier between my eye and the bottle tip, or to accomplish the same, a way to prevent the bottle tip from coming into contact with my eye ball even if I pushed bottle towards my eye. Take a 9 oz plastic cup, at bottom end make a hole in the center to allow eye dropper tip to enter until the main container of bigger size stops the travel of eye dropper. Place the end of the 9 oz plastic cup normally used to drink from, on top of face above eye. Look straight upwards until center of plastic cup's bottom is centered over eye and then squeeze eye dropper. Works for me. Doug

Zeev, I own a software company called ITWO. The sell SCM (supply chain management software). I just received a news alert that they are going to issue converts. The last thing I want is to own a stock whose price is subject to hedging by shorting the stock against the converts, ala Cymer. I really like the company and would prefer to hold the stock long-term. Their business is flying and they are executing flawlessly. At the same time, I'm bailing if this hedging is likely to take the stock down. Is this hedging always possible? Are there other variables I need to look at when more details are available re the converts? TIA Jay
