Excellent article from CIO Magazine: cio.com The net is that Y2K is *not* business as usual, and any company (and Member of Congress, I might add) that approaches it that way does so at great risk to the enterprise. And Flatty (feel like I know you well enough to call you that - wink), I appreciate your focus on the global nature of the problem. It'd be nice if we could just worry about ourselves or our companies or our country and ignore the rest, but that business paradigm was tossed out long ago. Read in the NY Times and WPost this morning about the US endeavoring to link up with the Russians to share missile tracking info, as an insurance policy to avoid "false positives" like the one that showed up on Russian radar screens back in 1995. Talk about bumps in the road! Duck and cover, indeed! Ken
