So Hershey Foods spends 112 million dollars to fix their Y-2K problem, and since July their salesman can't even tell if stores are getting candy, much less how much.

So Hershey loses a large percentage of the Halloween Season. And maybe Christmas, and Easter.

There will be a lot of laid off employees because of this.

Hey Cheeky,

This is a cute story. Unless you work for Hershey of course.

How cute will it be if the company is your electric, gas, or investing company?

112 million spent, already millions lost, and still counting.
