Re: Rollover

Hi Trevor,

I only want to suggest that if I were in a futures contract that expired in
three days, I'd be extremely nervous! Maybe I'm paranoid, but I wouldn't
care to get closer than seven days (tops). If I'm wrong to think this way,
I'd appreciate being corrected by someone. It just seems too close to
having to actually deliver the goods - or take delivery, as the case may
be.
