  1. Re:Hype on U.S. is "Just About OK for Y2K" · · Score: 1

    Well, I have mixed opinions on this. First I look at what happened a few years back on the west coast. Their entire Western Power Grid was cut by one "small" substation. Although I do not know the facts, that is what I have heard from several professors. Also, what about the crap going on with the Secretary of State Offices. They are mailing out Titles for new 2000 model cars to banks/customers with the label "1900 Horseless Carriage." These are minor problems that are hapenning months before the clock actually turns. On the other hand, being in this field, I really don't see anything major happening. But whatever the outcome, I do see human stupidity emerging itself like never before. Religious people, cults, etc will play this up like never before. "The end of the world is coming." Ultimately, I believe the real problems that Y2K cause will actually be caused from humans. Appreciate any feedback, I love to hear what others think and feel about this crazy topic. Have a good one, FastEddieG
