Hi Cheryl, Congratulations on your new home! "You don't have family that thinks your crazy,and are angry and concerned" Unfortunately I do and I bet so does nearly everyone else that posts on this forum.I have a brother that does economic development for a city in michigan.We have had discussions on y2k that resulted in him calling and discussing y2k preparations with the manager of the local water systems and the airport.In short the airport won't have problems because they have installed new systems and the FAA is ready.But,but have they tested in real time?Have they done interface testing?What proof have they that there is no embedded system problems? Are their vendors compliant?...Don't worry bro they have a new accounting system and the FAA says everythings ok... How will you get your water if the power is down? No problemo we'll just go back to manual like we did in 1990!! But but where do you get the manpower now that they have downsized?Don't you need power for any pumps?for any switches,valves?And so it goes. When you get your research cap back on check out this study on embedded systems. tmn.com J.L.T
