No explanation on CMGI, I really didn't press for one. I think Schwab sill reels from the time an investor sold a few million in naked puts in the HK branch, market dumped (I think the '87 crash) and It cost SCH millions. They closed the branch. There is a definite "preservation of capital" mentality there that serves most of their customers well, just not the dice rollers. They even make sure you have read parts of a prospectus before you can indicate for an IPO. There's a novel idea, actually read a prospectus.... JavGuy
