<< One of the side effects of Y2K price weakness has been a drastic dropoff in the number of messages on the Y2K boards. Only the TAVA board has a significant number of people posting. >> Right. But the coming months may well see a significant increase in media attention to the problem. Investors will return to these stocks IMO. Regards, John

paul, it is incredible...the denial and lack of leadership on this issue. This HUGE problem is not being taken seriously by the majority. Our national leaders are DELIBERATELY asleep at the helm! Our president needs his approval rating in order to stay in office. No elected official wants to deliver this news or cause panic! Since it is too late now to remedy the problem, they remain silent. Non-techies in business still don't get it! Once they look into it they realize the problem is bigger than they thought. (ex. embedded chips) CEO's will try to retire before this hits. This problem is so huge people cannot comprehend it...denial...depression...escape... If man's system worked, these boards would be buzzing...but it hasn't...and won't. I suggest 12/99 gold calls! IMHO LL
