RE: Millenarianism (was: Xywrite)

["Frank Kenneth B." KBF@xxxxxxxx]

Mr. Buschman may have information on this issue that I don't. He is
probably closer to the developers on this one than I am, but I will find out
whether in fact that has been determined. My last understanding was that it
had not.

Now wait a minute. I've been hesitant to call you on your very numerous
vaporous ramblings, about software availability, beta trials, and so forth
-- offhand, I can't recall a single TTG idea that you've floated or mooted
in this venue which has actually come to pass; but we have the clear
statement, on March 25, of your employee Mr. Buschman, as follows:

> A patch for Xywrite for DOS (v 4.017) and Xywrite for Windows (v 4.12)
> will be made available on our Web site (www.tgrp.com) and our BBS (410)
> 576-8806 (N,8,1) in 1999 to correct the known Year 2000 problems with
> the latest releases only.

> George Buschman
> Technical Support
> The Technology Group

So I take it you're backtracking on that too now?
