paul: That was serious ... with a humorous underpinning.

That long list of languages will surprise some folks who only know about COBOL and PL/I. There are many programs written in those languages that must be made Y2K compliant.

Paul, have you noticed that the Indian Rupee has lost almost 10% of its value over the last few months? Do you think this might have any impact on IMRS or SYNT's earnings this quarter? I presume the contracts are for US dollars, so revenue should not be affected, but expenses should increase as it will take more dollars to cover salaries etc.

- Jeff

P.S. As for not taking TED seriously, were you serious?

Paul,

Try this web site for super imposed charts of indexes including YTK
investor.msn.com

Once there, click on:
Intraday and Historical Charts

Charts are small and too jammed. Will give you an update
of my index comparisons this weekend in the same format
as before.
