     Yes, Sir,..it's the truth.... I did not enter a symbol yesterday;
     because I could not even find Clark's contest thread in
     my "mixed up" computer systems.
     
     ARCH. I just now stumbled onto the thread.

Well, it looks like it might be a good time to buy a few of my choice for this week...so I put in an order, but for a very few, just 10!  Will see how it goes the rest of the week.  It's kind of like testing the water when you only stick 1 toe in to see how it feels.  LOL!
