Re: [eia] I still have a problem

    The way Joel was describing it, the orders would be set when all of us
have responded.  So you could keep changing yours to your heart's content as
long as there is someone who has not sent theirs in yet.  But as soon as the
last person sends theirs in, whatever you have at that time would be locked
in.
