  2. you know I actually think that. When I got divorced I just spent the winter down in Mexico. And I heard all the stories about how bad they were. And they were every bit as kind as any Indiana boy.

    Just kidding man, we are all watching it on tv. Thanks for the update.

    You know we are all standing by to help.

  5. I call BS on that.

    Why can't the NASDAQ open? They're in CT, not NYC.

    NYSE/ARCA isn't in NYC. They're not even near water for any surge.

    What about the other exchanges? BATS, etc.

    Just because the NYSE is screwed up, everything has to shut down??? NYSE isn't the only guy in town anymore & shouldn't be treated as such.

    I have not seen that. I only saw the CBOE futures will be closed, not CME. Do you have a link?
