Oh people like to believe de Jaeger and Yaderni (sp?), those crooks make a living selling Y2K hypes.

Ed Yardeni makes his living as the Chief Economist at Deutsche Morgan Grenfell. By sticking his neck out on Y2K he may very well be risking his living. This is why other prominent Wall Street economists are mum on the issue.

Mike, I asked some of the folks at the newsgroup...comp.software.year-2000
about resetting the clock to 1980 as a proposed solution.
Generally speaking, they say you are way out of your league. Rick Cowles, embedded system expert dealing primarily with utilities, used the word "clueless".
Regarding your assertion that De Jager is a "crook". Well they say De Jager is an ex-mainframer, and you should not speak about people out of turn, unless you have proof.
