     Hello OB,

     It's very nice reading your postings at G-L, with such a high sounding
     vigour.Keep up the good work.

     I have been trying to get in touch with you through the email address
     you gave but my mail was returned back.

     Anyway,concerning the Y2K bug, there is no such thing like that as it
     is a propagation of Bill Gates which proof wrong. As some people
     pretend to have felt the bug in The Gambia through their telephones, I
     think they have faulty lines but not The Gambia telephone systems. I
     have been calling in The Gambia everyday since I came back from
     holidays in October but my line is always perfect as before or even
     better after the new year.

     I wish you good luck in your endeavours and a happy new millenium and
     of course a happy Eid Mubarak in advance and to all brothers and well
     wishers.

     Do I understand to say that you are working with a computer company?
     If so, how can I purchase one through you.

Folks,

I have just finished talking to The Gambia an hour ago, probably, the hitches
inour phone calls may be due to busy circuits or some technical fault of some
 sort which is unconnected with the Millennium computer bug.  Again, this is not
 to infer that the call failures had nothing to do with the
Y2K bug.  Minor glitches are bound to happen here and there as expected
earlier.I work for a US$5 billion computer distribution company, nonetheless,
  some aspects of our systems have problems with the date roll-over from
1999-2000.  Our Cat alyst System in particular is still reading 05/1/2000
thus:   05/1/1900 as I write this e-mail.  Considering the magnitude of the comp
any's investment one would have thought this unimaginable so let us not make
ourcountry's glitches out of the ordinary.

At this point we can only be optimistic and hope for the best just as everybody
else does.

Happy Eid-El-Fitr to all in advance.

OB Silla.
