I just wanted to clarify something, I got a few email messages from people who said I was one of the nuts who is saying the world would fall apart Y2K, I think everything will work out. I do not recommend anyone fill baggies full of dried food, buy a gun, or build a house underground. I think we will get though this ok.

While I fully agree with Nathan, having appropriate supplies around to be able to survive a week or so without power or heat or water or being able to buy food is probably a good thing. Regardless if it is January 1, 2000 or not.

It is always a good-thing(tm) when living in earthquake country <grin>. BTW, underground shelters are also viewed as ready-made coffins around here. BTW, any SF Bay Area ISPs effected by that little shindig on the Hayward fault last week? ___________________________________________________ Roeland M.J.
