(You may need to use a fixed pitch font in your email client for this
table to look right.)

So, how'd we do today?

12/15/97	7928.31	90.01	1.15%	1537.53	0.95	0.06%	-1.09%

Finished in 159th place.  However, there was a time today when the
divergence was above -2.0% which would have placed us in the top 20.

FWIW, the previously mentioned July 10, 1996 finished in 61st place.
