GOOD NEWS ... BAD NEWS Two weeks ago I posted a c.s.y2k report from "Mickey" who works for a large power generation utility. This was a 'good news' report: he basically felt that his own company was in good shape. Since that time he's attended a conference in Boston. This is his report of that conference. This is the 'bad news' report. I have edited the post to delete the name of a specific utility. rocky knolls (Sept 5 '98) greenspun.com

ComEd to spend $60 million on Year 2000 project He said ''mission critical'' systems will be fully compliant by the second quarter of 1999 and the entire project will be complete by the fourth quarter of 1999. biz.yahoo.com I am not posting this because I believe ComEd. Personally I don't. Just thought it would be interesting to track what's being said publicly vs. what's being said in the trenches. Cheryl
