Yes, a lot of brokers, etc. didn't like the thought of extended trading hours. Too much extra work for all involved.

Excellent! Cooler heads prevailed at the NYSE senior management level. Welcome news!

I also heard a quick report on WTOP today that The NYSE was delaying the switch from fractional numbers to decimals citing a desire to wait and see what Y2K brings.
