ALL: NY Times article .. interesting fact!!! In today's NY Times there's an article about y2k. They cover a lot of ground we know ... KLM groundings etc. What I hadn't seen before was the following . . . Bank of America is spending $80,000,000 JUST ON Y2K BONUSES! That's right folks. $30,000,000 in bonuses to retain 600 key y2k staff. (That's a 50,000 per person bonus!) Also $50,000,000 to be split by employees who "spot impending bugs." I don't know about you, but I think this is an AMAZING item!! Best, Ivan1 P.S. Let's change the thread name as suggested. Great idea.
