2B.. I'm relieved you've backed up my (completely inexperienced) instincts expressed in the buy/sell/hold poll thread.
Just curious how you feel, though, about having spent years of yr. life dedicated to "crap that doesn't work"!!
What line are you in now?

my summary from poll thread:
Friday's prices (8/17) YTD up 6.5%.
Thursday's prices ->5.1%
Wednesday's ->10.3%
365 days to 8/18/06 -> 16.3%
The difference between the 5% ytd return and the 10% ytd return is predicated on a change (Wed.->Thurs.) of 3% of the underlying portfolio which then got back about 1% (Thurs.->Fri.). Not particularly scary yet. [But then again I don't have 7 years' expenses in cash OR a "way overpaid stress-free job".. like 2B]
