zdnet.com The Hard Facts Jan. 3, 2000 SNIP: >>Gary North's Web site has been altered, and many of the loonier statements he made there disappeared almost immediately after the rollover. North claims his site has been hacked, but the "damage" doesn't make sense - why would hackers wait until after the New Year and then remove only part of the content on the site? Fortunately, there are people with accurate back-ups of the North site to preserve the record.<<

zdnet.com Cuckoo Clocks >What a crock. After listening to all the doomsayers and "what-if" mavens promoting their dubious Y2K agendas, we found that nothing came of the Y2K crisis. I'm reminded of the ludicrous hype surrounding the comet Kahoutek in the early 1970s. It was going to be bigger than Halley's Comet; its dust was going to choke the atmosphere; it was going to be the fireworks display of the ages. Then it came and went without even being visible. It was a non-event, just like Y2K. Who is to blame? The media, that's who.<
