Robert, as one of the nutballs who is buying (and selling) the Nutz at these levels, let me assure you that the only margin I use is intra- day. Most of the brokers have stiffened up the margin requirements for the really nutty stocks. You can question my sanity all you want, but I guess I'm not sure who's crazier....the person that takes the free money being handed out or the person who won't. Barb
