You all might want to print this out - may not be around for long. Make sure to get the word document or pdf file as well. Thanks to all for a great thread. Back to learning and lurking...

Wow, that was quick. There must have been some serious stuff there cause it's already gone.

Anyone manage to get a copy before it disappeared?

The Navy report was first summarized on an Internet site run by Jim Lord, a Y2K author, who said he obtained it ''from a confidential source of the highest reliability and integrity.''

''The military has to work from the worst case, but so do we,'' Lord told The Associated Press on Thursday. ''It's reprehensible for them to know this and keep it from us.''

Koskinen said the Navy wasn't withholding information from anyone, noting that the continually updated report was available until recently on a Web site maintained by the Defense Department.

''The last people in the world the department is going to keep information from is their own people,'' Koskinen said. ''In fact, the whole purpose of the exercise is to make sure they can provide appropriate information to servicemen on their bases and their families.

The report was pulled off the Web site two weeks, Koskinen said. Neither he nor Defense Department officials offered any reason why.


Thanks,
