Ron-
I can't understand why there is such crazy quarelling over Y2K ....
why not serious discussion of reasonable thoughtful preparation ?
The other thing is I believe many of those who are concerned are so overwhelmed by the possible enormous consequences and are acting like deer froze in the headlights and doing nothing- thinking everyone will be in the same boat. Well I may be in the boat but I plan on taking along my own life jacket in case the gov't is slow providing one !
Personally if everyone just took modest preparation as we have I would worry less about panic. As it is with the vast majority seemingly bent on blindly following the "gov't would warn us and/or will take care of us if it happens" nonsense we are more likely to have difficulty overcoming a medium bug bite than if more people took it serious.
