John -- I hate reading stuff like the post of yours I'm responding to....sure wish the pollyannaboys would counter with some posts from other "Big Iron" programmers which tell of how much progress is really being made in all those big, old legacy systems which are buried deep in the heart and core of so much daily *surface activity*.

thought this bit from near the end was worth reposting--

>>>As for Pollyannas and Doomsayers? I can understand the motives of most Doomsayers - if you believe Y2K
will be bad there is perhaps a moral obligation to warn others in as loud a voice as you can muster - whether or
not you end up being mistaken.
What motivates the Pollyannas? I have no idea. If you think Y2K is nonsense,
why are you wasting so much energy proclaiming it? Ignore it and it will go away soon enough.
