I watched it, too, or at least I thought I did. I searched my on-line TV scheduler and found that it was not showing until the weekend on the major PBS stations, but it showed up on the schedule at 10 p.m. on one of the little PBS stations. So I set the tape to record, closed my eyes with the TV tuned to it, and fell asleep before it was over. Well, I'm amazed I didn't have nightmares, the show was so scary. Unqualified doomer. It had this background music that sounded like the the score of a 50s movie about flying saucers. I thought I was in the twilight zone for sure. How could the Reuters item perceive the show so differently? Well, turns out it wasn't the same show, although the TV schedule clearly said it was. I rolled the tape this morning and found that what I saw was called Millennium Factor: The Truth about Y2K. There was a web site in the credits: millenniumfactor.com. Guess I'll have to wait until Sunday to see Cringely. Karen
