Christine, &Thread... I request a hearing for MY 172 Degree change on Y2K
First some heart housekeeping. I wish to publically apologize to the thread and to state without need for further explanation that I have privately sought forgiveness for my actions toward you, Christine Traut, woman to woman, for my behavior toward you, especially as my behaviors relate to Y2K matters. You have not provoked me in any way and yet who I treated you horribly. I do NOT know if my apologies will be accepted, and that is not the point. I simply had to do so privately, and did so earlier today.
As far as any of the rest of you lining up and waiting for your "apologies" I can't think of any of you even likely to make the honorable mention list, so keep on truckin'. I'm going to leave it at that.
The next post will have to be written later tomorrow, because I have obligations that require my time today in preparations for community and family Christmas celebrations, which are touched by a note of sadness wherein I'd like to honor my Dad who died Thanksgiving Morning.
Suffice it to this, thread...I have deliberately contacted my highest level of National Security contacts who operate so far above Clinton's head he only nods and does what he's told to do when they sign their collective names to an op plan. I've also contacted my sources within Alan Greenspan's private circle of intimates and have heard the same thing but from different voices that I've learned to trust in over 30 years of dealing with these types of elitists.
We will be allright during the transition into Jan 2000...it is not a delusion nor a childish sugar plum fantasy.
There will be problems but the electrical grid has been microscopically broken ALREADY and IN ADVANCE, so that cascading will not wipe out anyone for more than 6 hours at a time in order to protect other regions of the nation. The only unforeseen occurance is the baring nuclear reactor breakdowns of which there is still legitimate national security planning and concern on the highest levels.
These breaks have occured in time and underbudget, due to an incredible amount of People, and money and time and planning by some of our nations finest citizens for the good of all of us. And the electrical scenarios have been rehearsed and practiced until the response to any such emergency will be handled within that 6 hour period from furthers points of Northern Maine to the Jetties of Seattle.
The concern for national security within these 6 hour time windows is is extremely high, and with logical justification. They in those contact circles of mine know that SOMEONE single or multiples or are going to get through the net set to ensnare them. That is logical. Containment is the operative word, even if it is national restrictions on movement, via our mobility required until search and destroy is accomplished.
The rest of the world is not so prepared, a fact that should stun no thinking individual.
I can tell you this...after seeking out said contacts in the last several weeks, I can now sleep and am not a DOOMER any more. We will have problems but we will fix on failure, as it comes up, some things more of a priority than others, including rural water, sewage, hospital and emergency assistance. And the definition as to what is mission critical and what isn't still is debatable within the highest circles in our land. I personally am persuaded that what gores MY ox will not necessarily get fixed first or even on the 32nd cycle, but it will get fixed and there is abundant reason for hope, and for Yardeni's recession to hit us and hit us hard as an economy.
Like I said, it is a 172 Degree about face for me. The other 8 degress is to align myself with those who are watchful and vigilant and ready to act, reset, re-start, repair or reboot, regardless of whether it is water, electrical, phone or banking, or medical services. ANd yes, the banks will be open unless Jerk Clinton does something stupid, which I sincerely doubt he'll get away with.
His credibility is ZIP and those who work over HIS head know it, make no mistake about it. They have NO delusions whatsoever about his abilities in office or his supposedly private conduct outside his oval office. He will be contained if necessary as well, something that I find comforting frankly because I personally know some of those in charge, and Kosky is NOT one of them.
More later as I must run now and get some things done.
So, Have yourself a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, threaders, because I now know the reason for my about face
