Y2K on PBS (wttw-Chicago ) NOW-----11:43 AMgreenspun.com : LUSENET : TimeBomb 2000 (Y2000) : One Thread |
Whoops! I blinked & it's over.Federal reserve---says to have $500.00 on hand (just in case)
John Kossiksten (hahahha BAD spelling) says planes will not fall from the sky, although you may not want to travel to third world/underdeveloped countries where the air traffic control may fail. This is the BEST PART: He says that the Gov. is fine except for a FEW agencies...now get this, they include, Energy, Transportation and Defense...but it's no problem. ROTFLMAO! yah, no problem.
Store a little bit of food just in case---don't stockpile.
That felt good, I needed a good laugh.
BTW--doesn't this contradict most other media reports that Defense is a.o.k.?

Wowie! Those government agencies musta gone to a private tutor to bring their GAO report card grades up so fast....If I remember correctly most of them were in the C through F range not that many months ago.

Donna -- one of the facts of life is that imagination and curiosity are not equitably distributed. I still blunder in this respect, and I've been at it for a long time.

FM,I'm not sure what the name of the show was. (sorry, hubby was channel surfing y2k caught his attention) My TV guide says Religion & Ethics Newsweekly was on at that time.
Best I can do,
