>>> Is it possible some could be more worried about thier Y2K portfolio than the Y2K problem itself? <<<

That most certainly is possible in some cases.

It is most definately not true in my case.

If we have sporadic disruptions in our infastructure as a result of y2k glitches, which segments of our society will be the most vulnerable? Yep, same ones who are most vulnerable now -- the old, the sick, the infirm, and the young.

Why woud anyone want to needlessly increase the chances of high risk groups being placed in greater jeporady if we could take steps now to minimize the probability?

Better to take extra measures ahead of time to ensure as little disruption as possible than to count on heroic actions, dumb luck, and miraculous recoveries after the fact.
