Israeli Firm Hires Arabs to Work on Y2K Link: techweb.com For those who think y2k isn't crucial, here is a mind-blower. An Israeli firm has hired Jordanian programmers to help work on y2k. Given Israel's high-tech economy and defense system, they had better get their y2k problems solved. If their solution is Jordan, they've got a very big problem. This, from TECH WEB NEWS (Dec. 26). * * * * * * * * Several dozen Jordanian programmers and engineers arrived in Jerusalem earlier this month to begin the first phase of a ground-breaking cooperation between an Israeli software developer and an Arab company. . . . But despite years of such distrust -- and enmity between the Arab governments and the Israeli authorities -- Israeli companies are being forced to search for labor in Arab countries to overcome a huge labor shortage. Malam and its Jordanian partner said they plan initially to invest $2 million in the software venture. Fittingly, the joint venture will develop software aimed at helping solve the year 2000 problem, a worldwide problem that is causing severe labor shortages. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Once again we see that the shortage of programmers is addressed. For God Sakes! think about it. How many times has the U.S. tried to intervene between the Israelis and the Arabs. So far the peace attempts have failed and almost every week their is another news story about continued aggression between the two sides. What brings these two sides together? OF ALL THINGS, THE YEAR 2000 PROBLEM Truly amazing..... Maybe it should be a new logo for he industry. "The Year 2000 Problem, although it may cause a world wide economic disaster, it may, at the same time, bring about peace and cooperation."

Tech, Thanks for the informative post. When you see these buy signals please let me know. I 'm glad I didn't jump on at $10.+ but thare is a chance I might get in later. Why would a man with your trading skills get in now instead of when you see the buy signals? The price of the stock is low and every small downward move is such a large percentage of the amount, I would hate to get in now and the price go to $3.00 and lose 25 to 30%. This just seems to differ from the logic I seen you apply to lets say ALYD. Why such a reveral of logic? I don't understand. Thanks , Robert

Dearest technoid, I love the tidybowl man's predictions. I still have my good until cancelled order in for 10000 shares at $3.5 and a sell on them at $5.00 to be issued as soon as bought. Pigs will fly, but the really lazy pigs will not fly too high, perhaps. I will donate any money made on this trade to a charity that works with homeless, stock gurus. I remain, SOROS ps Your TA is indeed amazing!
