Oh, wow, man! I was really startin' to freak! I thought we only had about 30 days left! What a relief!!

If it was counting down to the true new millenium it would be accurate...but otherwise?

There were 2 links on that Gary North page:

The Juice page It shows 30 days left and has a cool scrolling message that says:

"You are getting sleepy ... Sleeeeepy...Sleeeeeeeeepy ... There is nothing to worry about ... Planes will not fall from the sky ... Remain calm ... Be happy! ... We have been working on the problem since 1996 so we believe we are confident and making progress and we are well on our way to be on schedule and right on track so that most of our critical systems will be ready by December 31, 1998 leaving a full year for testing and we have no evidence that we will not be fully compliant by January 31, 1999

The other link is: http://www.tasc.dot.gov/Y2K/

Which also says there are 30 days remaining.

I don't see any 395 days. Dang! We could use just a scosh more breathing room.

Sometimes this place reminds me of the Cyberspace Twilight Zone...

395 is about right for the new millennium...which starts, as we all know, January 1, 2001...

-- Mad Monk (madmonk@hawaiian.net), December 02, 1999.

Mad Monk has a point -- about 30 days to Y2K, and about 395 to the new millennium. They are NOT the same.

-- A (A@AisA.com), December 02, 1999.

395 days? Gary hasn't come this close to predicting anything in the last 30 years.
