Hey, I wish all of you the best this Christmas and may the Y2K sky not
fall on your heads!

The ECDL project just hit 100000 points which is a nice present. :-)

Presumably these graphs will show a Y2K effect in a few days:

What better way to really measure it than to count results being
computed around the world and sent in by email and http?

I suspect there will be a dip for 3 or 4 days, not due to any bug
but due to innumerable people "solving" it by switching off machines.

Bye,
Rob.
