Still only words and no hard evidence. Airing these allegations without proof is illegal.

Mr. Wexler, I have read them..three times to be exact, but I don't see what it is you are looking at. All I read is they have made an announcement of contracts or a management change, or something of that nature. I spent about three days talking to brokers and using the internet to find out all I can about this company. Then I come here and you keep saying it is in the filings, but I don't see it. Could you direct me to just one, as an example, so I may compare it to the rest? Thanks in advance. Dan

Another boring Y2k posting from Y2k alarmist John Mansfield (press 'next' to skip...; but perhaps read if living near Washington DC...) Lots of embedded system remediation still to be done; relation with TAVA is absolutely not clear to Don, Billy, Mr. Seuss and some other ignorants. To many it is: just one of the many clients waiting for embedded system remediation offerings. John _________ 'Among the most massive Y2K undertakings is that facing regional transportation authorities. The Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority, which provides 950,000 bus and subway rides each weekday, is still trying to diagnose the problem and come up with a cost estimate. Metro already knows that every fare gate and Farecard vending machine in the subway and every fare box in the buses requires fixing because the software is not Year 2000-compatible, said Donald McCanless, Metro's chief information officer. Metro's inventory control system -- used to track everything from rail car wheels to spare bus headlights -- needs work, as does the computer that maintains the payroll for 8,500 Metro employees. Still to be inspected and tested are 543 escalators, 201 elevators and dozens of other computer-controlled devices, such as air-conditioning systems and the automated train control system, which determines the speed and distance between Metrorail trains. . . . washingtonpost.com
