Just a note about Y2K stocks. Cautionary. I saw this little article in the IEEE rag this morning that said that Y2K is expected to be the next, "lawyer work forever act". For this reason, some consultants are refusing to do Y2K work due to the legal liability involved should anything go wrong. This leads me to see the spectre of Y2K companies that have been scraping by getting sued for their eyesockets as part of class action lawsuits post Y2K. These companies barely floated, mostly, and then they will get eaten alive by sharks just outside the Y2K reef. Those who profit will be lawyers and company officers who pulled out big money and stuck it in Swiss bank accounts. (My little thought for the morning.)
