Walt,
	I can't measure the volatility of Sugar puts and calls but if they are
anything like the Commodity itself they can't be low. I would think that
like most markets, that after the plunge stops there will be a sideways
move for a while. Quite a while if history is an indication and this El
Nino seems to be highly over rated.

Regards,
Brent
