Mike - they really love you on the CPQ thread --gg. What's it like being the "Darth Vader" of the PC world? Anyway, stop confusing these people with the truth and stick to the company's script. We got the tout-fests running and they don't want you ruining the stock's run-up.-gg Mike

Speaking about planning on dying, apparently there is a fairly large low tech Y2k problem. There are a bunch of people (I think the article said hundreds of thousands) that bought prepaid funerals. The selling companies already cut headstones with the first two digits of the year of death cut in, as in 19xx. So you better die quick or you have a fight on your hands over who is paying for a new headstone. ho, ho ho .... Regards, Ice
