>> Baltimore would be a GREAT location for HLY2K Reunion

As a native of Washington D.C. growing up on the South side of the Potomac, am I entitled to say I'm scared to death of any event that might involve Maryland drivers. (g,d&r)

>>the idea of the Statue of Liberty for the Y2K piece

Film maker Ken Burns did an interesting piece on the Statue of Liberty - though it got a tad off focus toward the end. Very much worth watching. Quite controversial in its day, the SoL served the function of a navigational aid simply by its shear size and lit torch, but this was not the purpose of its creation.
