>>My largest fears of Y2k are still the bad boyz inside & outside our borders(and our govt.?) which will try to take advantage. <<

No source that I consider reliable has suggested that there will be anything but a few trivial hiccups in North America.

(WorldNutDaily is not, in my books, a reliable source)

Even Peter de Jaeger who was the flag-bearer for the Y2K hysteria says that things are pretty much under control now.

Outside of North America - eg. in Russian nuclear reactors and Japanese banks - it might be a different story but even that won't be anything that can't be managed. The Russians will throw people at the reactors, the Japanese will throw yen at the banks and life will go on pretty much as it does every year.

Gold will do well next year but it won't have anything to do with Y2K.

Y2 Kare?
