So far this year our snow average has been surpassed by 5 inches. The
old average was 17, so far we have had 22. Mass has Global Taxing to
the tune of 10 inches above normal average... Just the facts, as
Al Gore doesn't see em'


Weather and climate are two different things. many people confuse
them.


But fraud is still fraud..

I do not trust the numbers, collections systems, and reporting which
supports man made Global Taxing... I feel that like the Y2K hoax, it
is being run on hype, designed to stimulate commerce.. *BTW, the
result of the Y2K hoax was everyone buying a new computer at once, and
no one needing one for a few years, leading to a real problem in the
market... But the guys who had stock in computer companies leading up
to the hoax are still rolling in money...

The software *fix* for our company's Y2K problem
was in excess of $200K. *We switched over to a competitor's
system just before rollover.

Well, I was working as a CNE for a public traded corp at the time and
we had issues with only one program, which needed to be upgraded at
each workstation. Three facilities, almost a week, but we did not need
to buy new computers. How did your old equipment fair after the Hoax,
or did you just toss them out and never really find out? I am not
saying some business needed patches, but Dell, Compaq, etc had a blast
making everyone think they needed a computer all at once. No surprise
a year and a half later the market for processors tanked...
