Michael Moore, If your head is up your ass, does it matter if you heart is in the right place. Grassroots activism against the bailout and scaring the crap out Congress could create more wrangling and disastrous no vote gridlock. If Congress doesn't act quickly, we can look forward to harvesting

As for the Y2K problem, this was not a catastrophe because the industry did the work; remember all those Cobol programmers that came out of retirement? No, they were already working because the rates were so good in the mid-90s. It was the cheap foreign labor that upped the work force in
