X-Message-Number: 7397 Date: Wed, 1 Jan 1997 09:19:39 -0800 (PST) From: (Greg Stock) Subject: Year 2000 Problems Bob Ettinger and Hara Ra commented about the Y2K problem. There has been considerable activity on the problem for a number of years now although the issue has only recently begun to get serious media attention. This will be very big crunch, but the notion that cryonics orgs could make money in this area other than through investment is extremely naive. The skills are different and the train has already left the station. For comments about the many companies scrambling to address the problem, try a longstanding thread at silicon investor --- http://www.techstocks.com/~wsapi/investor/s-2448/reply-2085. For general information, the year-2000 information center is a good place to start: http://www.year2000.com/cgi-bin/clock.cgi Gregory Stock , Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=7397
