so much for the letter blitz's and lawsuits.
my solution to 2000 woes is simple: bang the markets hard and fast for
the next 14 months and "retire" in a warm and sunny climate on 12/31/99.

Sure, it was issued on advice of counsel, and there is no coincidence
about the timing either.
Just before it adjourned, Congress passed a law which gives software
suppliers and others involved in installation and configuration of
software a rock to hide under when it comes to responsibility for
damage caused to their customers by Y2K problems.
This loop hole was announced this week (or last) in one of the
electronic magazines for the software industry to which I still
subscribe. I thought about posting the notice to this list, with the
comment that Omega would now not provide a Y2K fix. But I decided not
to post it, in case Omega missed the news.
No such luck. Omega hopped right on the "We're not responsible
bandwagon."
I do not remember the details, but as I recall, under the new law,
notification of potential Y2K problems provided within a certain time
frame, will prevent class action lawsuits over Y2K bugs. A notice
posted on one's www site is sufficient notice, among other options for
notice.
Happy trading until Y2K stymies you,
