Heh well I'll be the first one to make a Y2K post here ... HAPPY 2000
ONE AND ALL!
I just saw the most STUPENDOUS fireworks I've EVER seen ; we had a 360
degree view from the roof of this building and they were happening all
around us. If you see any footage from Melbourne, Australia, that's what
I was in the middle of ;)

Chris:
Happy 2000 to you as well. Your post is living proof that the
Internet has survived the transition into the new year, at
least in Australia! <grin>
Didn't see anything from Melbourne, but I did see some of NBC's
footage fron Sydney, and that was pretty impressive itself.
Have a safe and happy New Year, and keep up the good work.
Onward and upward!

I saw some of the Aussie fireworks on the tele, and they looked damn cool.
The new millenium (ha!) is still 15 hours away for me. Seems a bit
anticlimactic really.

Thanks Chris.
Hey, your date reads 31-12-99 and time 14:33, so according to my view you
are still not living in 2000! But look at my date...!
(When does the year 2000 REALLY start??)

Some newsreaders (perhaps even most) adjust posting dates such that the time is
displayed using your own timezone.

Great to hear things went smoothly down there too! :)
I spent the rollover to Y2K swimming in the ocean in the pitch black
watching fireworks under a starry sky :)
Happy New Year everyone!
Keep up the good work Mr Cason!

I've been watching CNN's coverage of the New Year's celibrations around
the world. they didn't cover Melbourne, but if what went on in Sydne is
any indication, you are having one whale of a goot time.
Happy New Year to you all!

Now me and my wife got back home and we just checked if everything works
(Yes it does!). So once again a happy new year to everyone around here!
Now I feel like take a listen to my bed. Hope it will tell me sweet
dreams.

What I meant was "Happy new year to you too", not "I'll also be first to post
a y2k message"...
Well anyway you get the idea

The date change appears to have driven MS-DOS insane. My computer is now
saying things such as "I refuse to do that!" "General error reading your
mind" "Sorry, I won't do that until you upgrade me with more memory" and
"You want me to do what?!?!?"

I envy you...
We went to the beach to see the last sunset... clouded by a typically
dutch grey mist.
Anyways...
...we found some real 3D fossil tracks from the 20the century in the
sand which we hope to preserve for the next millennium (whenever that
will start;) ).
In other words: we made some casts off/from (?) our footprints in the
sand.
Boy, was that cold 8)

Well, this is an as good time as any to discloak...
After some absence.. I'm slowly getting back to the intarfaces and
heading for pov. and the multiple dots and crashes of pov follow tight
along my lacking RAM ;-)
Well, Greets and shoutouts to ye all.
(nope, no image in progress, and no povved in almost... 6 months... I've
been in some pretty rough stuff...)
a few days late, but still :)

Well glad to see that you still remember us any how. Try not to make
such a stranger out of yourself from now on.

Wondered a couple times (what? no more than that?! you might ask) when, or
if, the Spider would show up again. Welcome back. You'll have to at least
post a picture of the humungous web you must've been weaving all this time.
