 I just heard from TWA (took 'em a week. Suppose they've been getting lessons
 from HP?) They said they were not aware of it. 
That's because it was wild unfounded speculation: the most dangerous
aspect of the Y2K "problem."  It probably won't be safe to travel on that
day, though.  One fairly safe bit of speculation is that there will be a
lot of drunks on the road that day.
