Newcomers & All: a good list of information links

greenspun.com : LUSENET : TimeBomb 2000 (Y2000) : One Thread


Are you looking for more links to read? The following is a good list from Dennis offered through this thread (November 14, 1999). They are now hotlinked, but not checked for accuracy or dead links. Perhaps some readers would be willing to check out the links for a topic or two and post any corrections, or additions to a category?

Although I've been reading this forum for a while, this is my first posting. I GI'd three years ago, but still found it difficult to get information. I'm grateful for this forum and all the informative threads/links offered through it, so I'm hoping that hotlinking Dennis' links will expedite newcomers' access to information - time IS short.
