Re: IPL with future date
Just speaking form my Y2K testing experience You are inviting problems with future dates on current systems. We had to do a complete reinstall of SAS because we did what you describe on a real system (not an emulator).

However, that instance would touch catalogs from our production instance which would be running with the current date. Is this a recipe for disaster or will I get away with it.

Re: SHARE bound air traveler's TSA change liquids prohibited in carry on and new security nationwide
In the early '80s, I was constantly on the road. I used to take my trusty old Atari 800 with me. One bag for the 800, another for the disk drive. Just cheap, unpadded vinyl bags. One round trip every week like that for a couple of years. I always checked them and the thing never failed to work. The bags were pretty scuffed up at the end of that time. Over the last 4 or five years, I have lost two laptops because I was forced to check them. Once, I had two laptops for a demo I was doing. The airline would only allow me to bring one on board. They destroyed the other one with their baggage mangling. The second mishap occurred during one of the TSA paranoia panics when someone decided that all carry on luggage must be checked planeside (it was a commuter jet). The screen was broken when I got it back at planeside.

Re: SHARE bound air traveler's TSA change liquids prohibited in carry on and new security nationwide
This comes down to major paranoia. Yes, there are security risks. But, how much of it is protection? And, how much is rampant knee-jerking over-reaction? This is the crux of the matter. Americans have lost their idea of what freedom entails and look to the government to take care of everything for them No government can make you safe. If you see someone doing something on a plane that is dangerous, threatening, or otherwise harmful, take action against the threat. It is your duty as a free American. Don't subject your fellow Americans to invasions of their privacy and restrict their freedoms just because you are too lazy to exercise your responsibilities. - Alan -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html

Just pack your toothpaste, etc. in your checked luggage instead of your carry-on. How big of a problem is that? You can then wait for an hour while the airlines deliver your luggage (or maybe don't deliver it) to the luggage area. My wait for my toothpaste in Atlanta yesterday was 55 minutes. - Alan -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
