Yup.  I was on-line, and nothing odd happened - except eBay was
performing better than
ever, because they told everybody that they'd be offline during the date
change, but they
were actually on-line.  I did a bunch of general web surfing, and
noticed no problems at
all.

Linux works fine, and so does EMC.  I installed the 20-DEC-1999 version
yesterday,
and used it a bit today (Jan 1, 2000).  I also played a bit with the
logging/plotting
functions.  The logging works, but the reformatting of the file for
xgraph doesn't seem
to occur, and the plot button has no effect.  It could be that something
is not in the
right place.  Anyway, I have a manual awk command line that does the
reformatting,
and then I send the reformatted file to xgraph with another command
line.  No big
deal.

Since I haven't said it yet, happy new year to everyone!
