Taking into consideration KOS's post, I will be happy to plunk my Year 2000 rear-end up to anyone's table and eat a delicious dinner of baked, boiled, woked, pan-fried or stuffed crow. I will delight in the lights and heat and full market shelves. I'll guzzle the bubbly and laugh at myself and eat those damn beans in my Y2K closet and drink that nasty water that tastes like Chlorox and clean my bathtub with those six thousand gallons of vinegar. I'll take the hit to my ego with pleasure, I'll smile at the teasing, I'll bwahahahahaha at myself everytime I pass a mirror and I'll stop wearing my tinfoil hat out in the Chemtrail air. I'll greet each new day thankful something terrible has been averted and I'll pack up some of the food and take it down to the food bank. What I will continue to do is, question authority, question the media, question extreme's, and enjoy my life. Each report of good news is great fun. I loved seeing the Tongans sing in the New Year...whether broadcast by generator or not. I hope all keeps going well and if it does...STICK THE CROW IN THE OVEN, DEBUNKIES, YOU'RE GONNA HAVE COMPANY FOR DINNER AND I'LL BRING THE DESSERT! If it doesn't, well then, I take it all back.

I'd wait until the end of January to Mid-February, if I were you.

Just a thought.

Funny post Casey (at the bat). But the good news is mainly the embedded systems and automated controls that were in use at midnight. We still have embedded systems and computers turned off right now. So there is some risk with your early "I told you so" post. I've been a 2 out of 10 on the Y2K scale, so I'm not expecting that much -- but most software problems won't be discovered until January 3, or the end of the first week of January, or the end of January, or the end of first quarter 2000

batch processing should just about be finishing up at the first impacted time zones. next is auditing. then, happy reports or silence.

i'm encouraged to see no significant reports that would point to embeddeds as problems.
