I wouldn't expect to hear anything from oil ports for a week or two (unless there's someone working at a port who's posting here).

I saw one report from Iran or one of those oil exporting countries. They just confessed today that the reason they were compliant was because they turned all their clocks back to 1995, so the embedded systems have no problems. I suppose that could work for a while, but I wouldn't want to be the guy who is in charge of trying to keep accurate data from this point forward.
