Y2K was a con job to get massive increases in government spending at all levels.
Besides, the end of the 20th century was on Dec 31, 2000 and not Dec 31, 1999 like the “masses” think.
I mean for goodness sakes, people were hoarding bottled water. Why? Because they were too stupid to actually believe some “expert” that said a computer chip in water processing plants would go nuts in 2000 and shut down? What crap. Cities were giving us water before computers were used.
And planes would just drop out of the sky because the computer would think it was 1900 and planes weren’t invented then? Really? I actually heard that one on some idiot news program.
Wow, our computers only use a two digit year so the complete laws of physics would go away?
If you’re calculating a moving average of temperature over the past five minutes, in order to control coolant flow, for example, and when the year goes from 99 to 00 you get a moving average of 99 years and 5 minutes instead, then things could get pretty fouled up.
It was not a con job by any stretch of the imagination.
I’m not going to argue with you, because you don’t have a point that relates to anything I said.
That having been said: do whatever you feel like, I don’t care about that, either.
