greenspun.com : LUSENET : Grassroots Information Coordination Center (GICC) : One Thread

"Remember Y2K? Seemed like ages ago, didn't it? But rumours started flying that the bug was back yesterday at the Stock Exchange of Thailand.

"There was no trading for the first 12 minutes of the morning session. SET spokesmen said the problem was in the online trading system, and that a formal clarification was pending.

"Hours passed, and the only clarification to emerge was that, yes, there had been a computer glitch."
