20 years! I think we can all be very proud of what FBN has done to aggressively impact America's Productivity® during these turbulent times. So many powerpoint presentations and cross-functional tiger teams, so many white papers on low-hanging-fruit synergies, so much game-changing out-of-the-box bandwidth that really took it to the next level. Remind me again, which one is the "usual place"?

I have a confession to make. Remember when we were all hunkered down about 10 stories underground in our headquarters ready to usher in Y2K? All that canned food and bottled water piled up around us, and so forth. Once the new millennium was upon us, I prodded Mr. Bill to turn on his computer to see what would happen, which he did, and then when he saw the date was January 1, 1980 he started screaming "Oh my God, Oh my God, they're all dead! We are now the last humans left on earth!!!" Well, I had secretly removed his CMOS battery, which reset the system date. Hey, after we revived him and told him it appeared to just be his PC, he did recover pretty quickly. - Jeff
