If Y2K wasn’t a problem then why did companies waste billions of dollars to upgrade systems and thousands of man hours on it?

Isn’t what you and so many that like to bring up T2K saying a lot like say the Weather service makes a river flood crest warning of 29 feet the leeve is only 28 feet so the National Gaurd, Corp of Engineers, residents and hundreds of voluteers spend days filling sand bags to raise the leeve to 30 feet they get it to 29 1/2 foot the river crest at 29 foot and the flooding is avoided. So now you make fun of the Weather service because there was no flood? There was no flood because there was a WARNING and people then heeded that warning and took action to prevent a disaster.
