CK - I've noticed that your "happy happy" posts are essentially on the other end of the spectrum from the Doom and Gloomers. You are not the voice of reason. You are simply posting links that support the nothing will happen theory. For every one of them that you post, I can find one that supports the end of the world theory. What makes your links right, and theirs wrong? Perhaps you (and us all) need to accept that we really honestly don't know what is going to happen. The only people that have a glimpse of the possibilities are the ones that programmed the software and built the embedded chips. And many of them have admitted that they really aren't sure what will occur. The sad thing is, I'm more on your side that the doom&gloomers. I'm pretty sure there will be a few glitches, but nothing major (my guess). My main worry is the reaction of society to those glitches. Any small problems could be blown out of proportion based on people's fears that our infrastructure is crumbling. Unlikely, but considering that LA will riot if the power goes out for more than 6 hours, it could happen. (Then again, that is LA... g) What are your opinions on what will occur when the clocks strike? Anyways... Just my thoughts on your attitude and posts. HAND llater, Tony B
