I almost missed this announcement written in fine print on my credit card statement:Important Account Information
Y2K Update: The security of our customer's accounts is our highest priority at ------- ---. We are committed to preparing our systems for the new millenium. Look in coming months for more information about Y2K readiness!
What kind of a VAGUE statement could this be? What do they mean to convey?

The statement is meant to convey a soothing, calming, Pepto-Bismol effect into your mind, such that you will not be tempted to go get your money out of the bank.

If they were ready now they would have told you, perhaps you should panic a bit if they are just becoming Y2K aware at this late date.
