I can understand tcd's feeling testy lately. As you know, I stopped posting here when all I faced were challenges and sarcastic dismissal. JXM also posted good "hands-on" information and was also dismissed.

I do not feel any sense of the "I told you so" glee. I am grateful that the information that I had proved correct about the turn of the year.

I am sure that we shall see irritating problems continue to crop up throughout this year. I am equally sure that everything under the sun will be blamed on Y2K, rather than on poor markets, company-specific problems, normal software glitches, and what have you.

Getting back to the point, I can easily understand tcd's feeling irritated on the basis of the reaction to my own postings and those of JXM.

Postings from people in a position to know information and, therefore, had to stay behind their aliases were treated brutally. People with no more to draw on than a search engine who posted doom and gloom were greeted with cordiality by certain people on this thread.
