Pardon the interruption from a lurker...but when you say NUT do you mean your break even... I own 200 CMGI and am looking to sell CC's next week as the stock splits on friday. Enjoy the thread...

Hi Evan, Hummm? Since, you have done very well milking those CC premies and you are so close to a one-year plus (long term capital gains tax) taxable event, I would say you might as well cover at a loss which will help absorb some of the cost in write offs. Good thinking! You folks are so sharp. I will have to tweak that WINs presentation to include that possibility when CCing. iqc.com IDTI did pretty good today holding up to the NASDAQ big dump!
