Hi CB,
I thought everybody was going to stash cash and have a staple supply para-y2k. The fed has already said they're printing more $$$.
Don't you think it's odd KLM isn't flying near the great event?
Regards,
Brice

I wonder how many other people intend to do this, and how many more will think of it at the last minute?

Many people are morons, so I suppose many might. This gives me an idea .... wonder if they will take it in cash or check. If cash, we got a great money making opportunity. -g-

I don't think the bank's cash/DDA accounts will be all that screwed up. I'd be more worried about being on a plane come midnight, or having electricity. For example, in your area VEPCO is working like crazy to fix one nuke plant in time and is kind of discouraged about getting the job done in time on another. And the NRC, or whomever, will shut 'em down next June if they are not convinced everything is OK. Don't ask me what OK means.

Then there is the big bugaboo, the distribution grid. Think New York, when all them babies were conceived, or the more recent problem in the Pacific Northwest. -g-
