Gagh...Y2K supplement in today's National Post (canada)

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

What a crock of horse manure. The premise of the lead article (yawn), 9999 wasn't a problem, therefore 00 will be all smiles, happyfaces, and sugar plums. Well folks, the experts on this site I spoke with for the last 6 months has said:

-fiscal year rollover won't be a problem (wasn't)

-9999 won't be a problem (wasn't)

-2000 will be a problem

Must say, the supplement is a good read just to see how hard it is to write 'nothing'. Maybe everyone at the Post is into Zen???
