John, Just because I said my own office products passed the Y2K test, doesn't mean there is no problem out there. As I have said before, it is my personal opinion that this problem will not be the doom and gloom predictions that I have been hearing. This is my sceptical view on this subject, and I research this problem with open eyes and a open mind. That is my personal opinion.

John, Of course you understand that when Sire claims his personal equipment has passed "the Y2K test" he is referring to his life space experiences with computers that he deals with. Sire is not alone in his extrapolation. If you ask the man on the street how they are going to solve the Y2K problem, if they know what you are talking about, might say: "What's the big deal, you just go down to Egghead and buy a new piece of software that has taken care of the Y2K bug." Most people don't have a clue when it comes to big computers unless they have worked with or around them. Good Investing, Steve P.S. I and many others really appreciate all your hard work and research.
