C.K. thanks for your excellent work. I live on an island where problems with the local power company (there isn't any alternate provider, and no grid) are rife on a weekly basis, due to incompetence, lack of maintenance, and bureaucratic indifference and lack of funding. Blackouts, brownouts, blown transformers, mongoose in the generator, you name it. I have, over the past 25 years, become inured to the problems, and have worked around them. Lots of ice, batteries, severe (but realistic) lowering of expectations as to what "big brother" will do for the guy on the other side of the meter when the fit hits the shan.
I can only wonder in horror what will occur in "the real world" stateside when the things which we have become used to hit completely unprepared, and in my view, coddled/spoiled, power overconsumers.
I have been attempting to bring some awareness of the Y2K problem to the managers of the local utility, but to no avail. I'm printing out reports found here on SI to barrage them with info generated at the highest, most respected technical levels, and any help any thread members can provide will be greatly appreciated.
M.
ps: The good news is that the local system is so antiquated and crotchety that "manual over-ride" is often the only mode that functions!

Cheryl, You seem knowledgeable about the y2k problem but quiet ignorant about how to value a company . How would you value TAVA and how do you just the the 220mm market capitalization

Someday, when Embeded Systems problems evaporate because TAVA has fixed them all ( =) ) how do you suppose TAVA will then generate the revenues that they wont be pulling in anymore. Do the have a back-up product for the future?
