I visited the new CBOE website and found the design pretty but convoluted
(see original comments below). So I sent them a comment email and asked for
additional info on how to find the OEX quotes that they previously offered.
I found it rather strange that they would rather call me on the telephone
than reply to the email. Seems a lot more expensive...

Um, the web is about electronic communication. Your response reminds me of
those old-line companies that put up a web site but don't have any email or
ordering capabilities. They tell you to call an 800 number <g>. Why even
have an email address if all you do is tell someone to call an 800 number?
How will you tell me where the OEX quotes are over the telephone? Let's
see, type H T T P : 2 forward slashes (no that's forward, leaning to the
right, not the backward ones), 3 W's then a period.... Does that make any
sense?
