I wasn't specifically thinking of BHP Steel when I said I was down 
15% in $A, and I didn't do an exact calculation.  My BHP Steel shares 
represented about 8% of the value of my BHP Billition shares pre spin 
out.  So perhaps I was only down 7%.  

Then again, the BHP Billiton share price has been quite volatile so 
trying to pin down an exact loss figure is possibly a futile 
exercise.
