Did either of them plan on a press conference for 1/1/00? I would be interested in hearing from them.....

Check out the thread "Gary North should answer for what he has done
-- DAVID (tdavidc@arn.net), January 01, 2000.
Ed 'Chicken Little' Yourdon is too busy trying to resuscitate his career right now to risk being seen in public with nutbars like Gary North.
-- DH (dh100@netscape.net), January 01, 2000.
Ed has nothing to answer for -- the threat was/(is?) real, even if it did not come to fruitition. Having had the good fortune to work w/Ed, I can tell you that he inspired me to take *reasonable* precautions. I live in Southern California and provisions for y2k work just as well as provisions for "the big one."I am personally grateful for Ed's concern.
Regards,
Jim Jenal

I'm sure there will be some sort of communication, if only to take credit for solving the Y2K threat. . .
