To Dre Skyfyre:
If your brain is destroyed before it is read into a different form
("machine" --- what is a machine --- or whatever) then it cannot be
read into a different form. It no longer exists. That is the problem
with brain destruction.

As for the YR2000 problem, I've heard for some time from both sides.
That is, those who have panicked and those who consider the problem 
as small. What I really want is much more data. For instance, small
businesses may not have addressed their problem simply because they
know (from consultants) that it will be easy and short to address.
After all, they do not have large computers linked together in nets
across the entire world. So the kind of data needed isn't just that
of how many have NOT addressed the problem yet --- instead it is 
that of the interaction: how many have NOT addressed the problem
and at the same time have a problem which will be serious, not just
for them but for others? And who are they? And how many of these
organizations or people have firmware rather than software? 

As of this instant, it's not clear to me that either the panickers
or the nonpanickers have fully made their case. So more data please.
PLEASE!!!!

			Best and long long life,
