Comment: 

The Department of Transportation is the only U.S. Government agency that has no CIO (Chief Information Officer).

The DoT has refused to give interviews on y2k. This, according to USA TODAY.

The FAA is part of the DoT.

Will you schedule a flight for December 31, 1999?

Transportation has upgraded just 7% of its critical systems, and is the only major federal agency that doesn't have a chief information officer overseeing Y2K issues.

Transportation officials declined repeated requests for interviews.
