Cheryl,

"What we've said beyond that is that each community ... needs to take a look at what their own experience is, in terms of natural disasters generally and in terms of confidence in their own readiness for the Year 2000, and make their own judgements."> John Koskinen

This statement makes no sense whatsoever, at least not to moi. What on earth does a community's disaster experience have to do with Y2K? Y2K is certainly not going to be like an earthquake or a hurricane or (from my own community's experience) like a tornado. Get real, JK!

My favorite phrase that JK has been using from the beginning: "there is no evidence to indicate...." (e.g., that Y2K will lead to a recession). Wonder what he would would take as evidence? Wonder what evidence he is prepared to accept / present that would indicate that Y2K will not result in a recession. Sounds like PR mumbo jumbo to me -- but then that's your area (i.e., PR, not mumbo jumbo <vbg>).

Regards,
O. H.
