That's why I am posting here for everyone who use BMI to
aware of the situation as BMI failed to pinpoint to us the
exact date, we WILL have trouble saving the index data we want!

I hope, pray, and request Omega support please check with BMI as
BMI do not answer to its little users with exact details ...

Plus, the biggest problem lies in the stock symbols - if you
added symbols into Omega Server as IBM/NYSE, yes, you can rename
the symbol, but not the exchange! so, when BMI switch its 
broadcast, we may or may not receive and save the tick-by-tick
data correctly.
