The only thing amusing about this is how stupid the guy who wrote it is, and the guy who posted it. Many embedded chips calculate elapsed time based on a 2 digit reference date, not a clock, counting forward to the year 2000 when they shut down. Just look at what happened to all of the oil refineries, causing shortages and skyrocketing prices. Why didn't those idiots listen to Ed and Gary and fix them ahead of time?

OH LOOK..........another true believer who failed Logic 1A.

TELL US TRUE BELIEVER.......HOW COME ALL THOSE BILLIONS AND BILLIONS OF CHIPS DIDN'T CAUSE ANY "SHORTAGES" IN ONE SINGLE **OTHER INDUSTRY** FROM CHEMICALS TO INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTION??????? (And note: there weren't any physical shortage in oil except for OPEC turning off the faucets. If you doubt that refer to the price slide from Saudi even hinting they were going to release. It seems "money" believes the Saudis not NUT CASES)...

"turning off the faucets"

YOU .........got any "proof"? I have proof that you are FULL OF SHITSKI.

Because with all the Y2k BULL SHIT, this was the ONLY possible area and to this day not ONE SINGLE EXAMPLE of a Y2k impacted Refinery or shipping incident CAN BE ***DOCUMENTED*** to be a CDC problem. NOT ONE. Now, of course, by the leading "theoretians" like "hawk" or "shakey" or equally assholes like North, Yourdon, Lord or Hyatt: IT IS ALL BEING "COVERED UP" BUT.....they would sell their souls for a bag of rice if they could FIND ONE SINGLE EXAMPLE.

FACT: OIL RISES ON SUPPLY AND DEMAND. CUT SUPPLY AND PRICES RISE. IF demand falls when prices are too high,,,,,,,,,prices fall.

THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT HAS HAPPENED FOR THE LAST ONE YEAR IN OIL. IT CAN BE ***DOCUMENTED*** but Y2k can not be. So, WHERE IS **YOUR PROOOOOOOF***???????

FACT: Oil was 10-12/bbl. OPEC and the US Energy Dept. both said this was baaaad. Prices had to go higher. In Nov. 1999, prices reached 23- 25/bbl. OPEC said: WE NEED MO. Prices rose to $31-33. Dingbats posted "Oil 33 going to 50". I posted Oil will crash. MARCH: OPEC says prices too high. Oil falls to $25-27bbl. by May 15.

RESULT: quotas were enforced by OPEC ****not****....DOOMER IDIOTS ON STENCHBOMB and Net Forums. OPEC and the Saudis in particular started talking about increasing supply in June but did not vote on it. PRICES CAME DOWN ANYWAY. PRICED DID RISE FROM LATE APRIL TO MAY BUT NOW...WE ARE AT...11 WEEK LOWS!!!! The only possible explanation for the price rise and subsequent fall and rise and fall can be shifts in supply /demand..NOT "PAULA GORDON MYSTERY GUEST THEORY" WHICH PRESUPPOSES "COVER UPS" ((EXCEPT TO HER AND HER GICC SECRET FRIENDS)).

EXPLAIN THAT !!!! ...........Gas trails Crude by about 2-4 weeks. ARE PRICES GOING DOWN NOW AT THE PUMP??? ANS: YES !!! EXPLAIN THAT.

Two weeks ago: Saudi said "we gonna ship out 500,000/day bbl from OPEC. Who will join us?". This weekend, Head of OPEC: (from Venezuela which was supposed to be "crippled" ala: the Y2k Fear BULL SHIT ARTISTS...said INVENTORIES MOUNTING...") MONDAY, PRICES MELTED AGAIN.

ANY OF YOU ...........DOOMER IDIOTS WANT TO BET THAT THE SAUDIS DON'T SHIP???

AND THAT THE ***REAL COVER UP*** IS THE DODGING AND HEAD FAKES BY ALL THE Y2K DOOOMSTERS WHO WERE..............***FLAT OUT WRONG*****???
