And moreover, business interests have recently led me to focus on electronic trading and brokerage issues. A quick check of my web page will give you a good idea of the range of my interests; see http://www.stern.nyu.edu/~fdiebold. The upshot: It seems to me that we would both benefit from a more extensive conversation. I would be happy to visit you in Houston to learn more about your operations, and to tell you more about mine. Please do let me know if you are interested. Best regards, Frank Diebold -- Francis X.
