JDN -- As more Fix-On-Fail *strategies* are revealed in the public and private sectors, it should become more broadly understood that embedded chips can fail for several years after roll-over. A year from today, Denver and others on the Fix-On-Fail plan will be scambling to make repairs, but they will also be faced with uncertainty of not knowing which of the chips which are working will fail -- or scramble data -- in the weeks, months, and years to come.

I hope that at some point TAVA gets the word out that their y2k business does not come to an abrupt halt a year from today.

I think it is possible that if the scramble to get repairs done a year from now is serious enough, that it might motivate those on the F-o-F plan to be a bit more proactive.

Also, the data is quite overwhelming that the public has had more than enough of the Washington soap opera -- even if it is extremely important and historically unprecedented (we're a fickle bunch, we Americans). The media knows it needs new fodder to feed the ratings. Wonder what they might try?
