you are speaking to a dinasaur..I was one of those assembler programmers on mainframes...all the systems I worked on didn't fudge
the date...(I guess IBM etc didn't need to scrimp on storage..I worked
on state of the art as my introduction..which now probably looks silly compared to new pcs)
anyway I have called a couple of friends of mine who know people who
worked in early sixties to see if they ever heard about code 99..
I am beginning to think gold bullion,silver etc might be interesting
to watch rather than the gold or silver stocks even..
also I searched the web to see if I could see any reference to the term and couldn't find any..
if you hear anything please post back..if I find out anything more..
will immediately post..hopefully it is not Year1999 problem..
