Don't forget futures contracts with delivery dates two years out. I (and
others) need to collect data on these now for spreads and seasonal studies.

I'm sure the banks and oil companies would be happy to know that they're
needs are esoteric in tracking deferred futures contracts. And I seriously
doubt (as you suggest) that only 0.001% of TS users are affected by the
inability to collect data on Leaps AND DEFERRED FUTURES.. you should not
conveniently forget some of the facts to prove your point.
But the fact still remains that if Y2K compliancy such a trival matter,
then we should expect a patch soon, either from Omega or a Solution
Provider. And if not soon, then WHEN???
