Crude oil pipelines will be a real problem if they shut down for a few days. Like throw them away and rebuild. The oil and paraffin will glob up when it cools down enough and you can't get it flowing again by any reasonable means. Great, huh?

smart kids, I suspect. You had Preston Martin Former Fed Head, on cnbc talking about Y2K chaos in exactly those words yesterday.

Funny thing, every time congress asked Greenspan about Y2K in the past 18 months prior to last week on cnbc. The geniuses at cnbc went to commercial and did not televise AG's responses.

AG has done cobol programming and knows that there are problems, but cnbc does not want to have anyone hear about it -ng-
