Heart pacemaker failure?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : TimeBomb 2000 (Y2000) : One Thread

Is there any truth to the fact that heart pacemakers can or will fail when 2000 comes. If this is a possibility, what should people with pacemakers do?

Don't see any pacemakers. No guarantee. If you have one, ask your doctor......and make certain that he checks it out with the manufacturer.
