heyas; i'll own your soul, crescent. as long as i can trade it for some good deals.... okay, here's THE conspiracy theory! the m1 and v1 cds were removed cuz.... um, okay, because they are old. because nobody buys them any more because they buy m2 and v2. and um... oh i know! they had a 'sell by' date on them, and now the m1 and v1 cds are stale.
