I agree with Just Asking. I became a GI last July and have been preparing ever since using Ted Derryberry's list. I am not a geek, but respect the guys (and gals) working on this thing. I came to this forum looking for information about what was happening vis-a-vis Y2K "under the surface," among the people in the trenches, away from the airborne PR cover coming from the governmnet via the mainstream media. Others come to this forum to find out if Y2K is really going to happen. Kosovo is a diversion. For the sake of "lurkers" and other interested newbies, stay on task. Lately, postings look wild and wooly. Let's deal in first-hand info, not rumors. IMHO... Sandmann

This is 'Merica, y2k is an ACE card, the mandarins are NOT stoopid, the card will be played. Oh!!! you think at rollover, nah, pultroons :), that is a fait accompli, cards are being played now...

amused, Pro:

Not to worry. That's a new doombrood tactic. Trying to lump everybody under one or two names. It helps them think that not too many people 'un-get it'... after all, they wouldn't want to be in the minority!

So, it's just another tactic that helps them defend their rapidly erroding position. The truth will win out. Less than 9 months to go.

ta-ta!

Andrew: you sir are not only witty, a true comedian, but youre also a perfect caricature of an educated and charming British gentleman. I mean you no ill will trust me, in fact enjoy imensely your efforts to entertain and amuse the good folks in this forum. the hysterically funny side to your posts, is that I think you really mean what you write.

And Uncle Deedah, Andy's fascination's with Konspiracies and Kooky Prophets is matched only by this NG's longing for this Jimmy Bagga Doughnuts character. (i'm not him, either).

Mutha: bingo!

LOL... "Y2KPro," you are a joke, right? It has been my experience that when someone has nothing constructive to offer, that person resorts to name calling and invective against those people who do. You obviously have nothing constructive to say to anyone. You other newbies, please note Y2K's behavior. Name calling is meant to intimidate and harass, and to drive you from this forum.
