Awww shucks, Jimmy. Now ya got me all bewildered like a hen on a ostrich egg. You see, you said here: Message 4194981 "THE CSHK y2k software will be programmed to FIX as many problems with applications as possible." But I checked there website and it don't say that:11th-hoursw.com "11th Hour is a diagnostic program that searches through every file, EVERY FILE, and compares it to its proprietary database for Y2K compliance, upon discovering a noncompliant file or program it notifies you and tells you where to retrieve the patch, if one exists." Then I checked that "newsletter" pennystock.com ...and it says: "A list of the affected programs will appear on the screen along with the information on how to order the pertinent manufacturer's software patches to solve the problem specific to the software involved." That don't sound like it's a fixin' anything. Now I wonder—you're one of them Computer Science guys and you didn't catch none o' that and shucks, I can't even send email without the missus helpin' me out. I was just wondering, what part of Computer Science did you study? A database list sure don't sound like a fix from where I been readin. An' shoot—it shore don't sound like anyone needs to buy a database list cuz' whenever new virgins of prodicts comes out an' upgrades an stuff—well, seems like the market is able to find them with no trouble anyhow. I ne'er heard of nobody needing to get a database list to find out about the latest releese of Netscape, for example. Or Word. Or Quicken. Or Excel. Or Norton Utilities. See what I mean, Jimmy? Are you sure you been the computer industry?
