To All, Yesterday's High tech ironies: 1. Computerized brokerage and exchange systems were designed to handle surges in volume. They failed misearably to handle volume in this market based upon the productivity enhancement of technology. 2. Nasdaq, the crooked group that lists so many tech stocks, couldn't get their ticker working yesterday due to a computer breakdown. Oh, yeah, that is highly productive and efficient. 3. Phone systems sucked yesterday, despite the market cap of communications' tech firms. 4. The Internet went on a slow-down strike in many areas. All hail the new wired and inspired technology era and pass me the blanket for smoke signals (actually a lousy commo device in our smog-clogged world._ -g- 5.
