Y2k Best Kept Secret...does your representative know

greenspun.com : LUSENET : TimeBomb 2000 (Y2000) : One Thread

Was watching CNBC, listening to two representatives debate the impeachemnt. The commentor asked what would happen if the president was impeached. Rep. Larry Craig hatened to say that we would continue to move forward. He went on to say he had just come froma meeting about (stumble, stumble) Y2 (stumble). The moderator intrupted and said the "computer glitch". Craig said yes. Craig acted as if he knew very little about Y2k. All of us should take the advice of Bonnie Camp and email our congressmen again.

I have e-mailed all 100 Senators and about half the House members. I have gotten a grand total of ONE response that was semi-literate about Y2K. The rest were automated responses (mostly on the impeachment issue). If the country goes down hard, the next government should think seriously about criminal negligence proceedings against these lowlifes.

I cant provide a link, but a month or so ago I read that our elected representatives and leaders were the best cultomers at the food supply houses.

They know, but they are not necessarily on our side.

I e-mailed my Congressmen and he sent me a VERY LARGE package of info. on Y2K. Only a small percentage of it had a positive spin attached. The info. included many good Y2K links of all sorts. He appears to "get it" just fine. Now to contact my Senators... Thanks for the thought. I forgot.
