Ken, I'm not going to argue with you. Some folks believe there Y2K is the end of the world. I frankly don't. You're obviously spending too much time reading Gary North's website. And that is your right to believe and prepare yourself based upon that belief. And if it is TEOTWAWKI, fine. We'll pick up the pieces, put 'em back together, and "drive on" with or without you. After all, we can't all head for the hills and play Grizzly Adams. Ken, it seems you're a defeatist, plain and simple. I'm sorry to be so harsh, but your words denote you have already surrendered to your fears without knowing what will or will not happen on Jan 1st, 2000. The first lesson in doing analysis of Y2K is that no one knows what will happen and what will work and what won't. So we see our economy dragged back to a 1970's level. Big deal. We'll fix it and be better off for it. I'm worried about ensuring that people don't starve and we don't have a breakdown of social order that exacerbates any problems. I'm fully aware of the potential I will bet you the barn on that one. If I possessed a barn, I'd take that bet.... Then I would possess two of them.... <VBG> Regards, Ron
