<Why is it so hard to believe that some companies have already fixed or will have the problem fixed by the end of this year?>

More than two years of 14-16 hour days, back-to-back, seven days a week of researching. "Off the record" conversations with people involved with the problem/solution (no computer consultants) - management and people in the trenches. Government officials. Conversations with attorneys. I don't make money from what I'm doing. I'm trying to be a part of the solution ... not contributing to the problem.

You don't see my emails from individuals and companies trying to solve this problem, asking for direction. I get satisfaction from helping people.

One of my most recent emails was from the Y2K project manager in the UK for a multi-billion dollar pharmaceutical company ... because embedded systems were now a part of the project ... and there was very little medical device research available. Asked for my research report.

I'd rather deal with people like this, than people like you. This is the last post you will ever see from me ... directly to you.
