This 0 division glitch reminds me of the story I heard of an experiment on turkeys. The birds were trained to fly over a 10 foot fence. After some time, the fence was replaced with one 6 inches high and the turkeys were unable to fly over it and just circled around in confusion. Computers failing to ignore the 0 division function are to face a truly bewildering glitch in a little over 17 months (shorter than that actually, for companies whose fiscal year 2000 starts much earlier. They'd be ones to watch (MOO)). BTW, Does anyone know which publicly traded company is the first to have its fiscal 2000? Is there a website where this could be found? Apple, as we know, has always been compliant with this issue. But, I hope I'm not online for Y10k, unless Apple starts working on that soon. Stan
