""We are substantially ready now ... and we anticipated that we will be ready by August 31," Unger told reporters following a House Capital Markets and Securities Subcommittee hearing.

Missed Federal deadlines: 9/30/1998, 12/31/1998, 3/31/1999 (for many agencies including the SEC). Why would anyone believe agencies with such a bad record?
