<< Sorry it took so long to get back to you. I think J.I.T. and Y2k will effect far more than electronics, and in far worse ways. The corner grocery may well hold as many(or more goods) than 10 years ago, but their distributor carries far less(I.E. Often only 3 days of can goods) inventory, and in the manufacturing sector, Inventory is often less than 1 full shift. I believe in anything manufactured, the problem will be with long lead time and special order items. >> Richard, I agree. Still it may well make sense to stock up on some electronics items as well; not just food. John
