The survey, sponsored by Cap Gemini America, Inc., a leading information technology and management consulting company, finds a majority of large corporations  56 percent -- now expect 100 percent of their critical systems to be compliant by year's end, up from 48 percent in August.

Juat talking to my friend, an Oracle programmer at a large company. She says they are putting in Oracle patches and have tested well. The only thing left is testing live and we all know there will be glitches...

Mara Wayne, YOUR A LIAR. Nobody is fixing Y2K problems. Gary North says even if one company fixed their problems that all problems everywhere else will kill us all.

I all the GI's to travel to one region to form a new nation and trash the problems caused by the media, Klintons, DGI's, NWO, and the rest. Hopefully enough of us will survive to tell our children about how bad this world is right now.

Oh, goody! Only 44% of the large companies surveyed will fail to complete 100% of their mission critical systems. Well, THAT's reassuring.

Its a good link to an interesting release, thanks for posting. For those reading the "quotes" here, you can't get the real story without clicking and reading the actual release. I won't bother to quote the postive parts, if you want them go there.

Scaredadult....Your intentions are good...Your intent is not. The possibility of enough GIs traveling to one area is remote at best. The followup by the government would be catastrophic (try Waco or Ruby Ridge X 20). I suggest your reading include a series by William Johnstone known as the Ashes series (aka Ben Raines on the prowl). I firmly believe that should anarchy come to sections of this country, TPTB will stop at nothing to make sure it doesn't spread.

What? 82% of companies have already failed, and nobody seems to notice? And I have it on locally respected authority that only a moron would ask what failure means. Failed is failed, take THAT!

Flint,

What? 82% of companies have already failed, and nobody seems to notice? And I have it on locally respected authority that only a moron would ask what failure means. Failed is failed, take THAT!

No, it means 82% have had at least ONE failure. One failure at a time is not a problem. Even a couple of simultaneous failures can be dealt with if they are not severe or in critical areas. Dozens or even hundreds of simultaneous failures is most definitely a different story.

3,827 strikes, and you're OUT, Flint. Game over. Go home.
