Volatility Voicemail: Listener questions and comments?

• Question from Vizinator - Are there $VXX equivalents for Nasdaq, Dow and Russell?
• Comment from Paul F. - Andrew should change his VIX zones to go negative to indicate when VIX is in drawdown mode. Also, shame on him for nickeling Longo on Crystal Ball. He should lose just for that.
• Question from Dawiz - Gun to head, best VIX options strategy? No dawdling. Top of your head.
