' Swedish airports

Article: 1 of 2 From: Robert Egan <egan263@nospam_allowed.ix.netcom.com> Subject:     Quick status report Date: Sat, 02 Jan 1999 09:47:15 -0500

January 2, 1999 - Approx 10AM East coast US time
Date related failures in the news:

1. No passports at Swedish airports (unconfirmed) 2. One company forgot to upgrade their third party accounting S/W,

causing it to relive 1944.

Lets hope January 1, 2000 proves to be as newsworthy.

Happy New Year Robert [not ready to sell his house quite yet] Egan --

Thats right! No temporary passports could de issued.

2. One company forgot to upgrade their third party accounting S/W, causing it to relive 1944.

All taxameters, at the Taxi Stockholm cars (one of the cab company's in Stockholm) faild.

Credit cards at Statoil stations (gas stations) faild.
