Oh brother ... the Y2K scare part deux.

Y2K was a government hoax?

I'd always had my suspicions ... hate to see you, of all people, feel the same.

It was a hucksters's !*dream*! (and *not* a gov't hoax!) -

- the potential here for 'hucksters' looms large too (sales *are* up at Artmy/Navy stores) ...

A hoax resulting in a nation not taking prepardness seriously? People don't want to be fooled again, and oh, the ribbing.

Hoax my ass...we had an entire pen assembly line freeze up because one module wasn't upgraded. That is a machine the size of a suburban home, 9 modules, 1,000,000+ moving parts, all stopped by one box that wasn't on the upgrade list at a cost of about 27K per minute. Took three days to get it started back up.
