The year 2000 problems will not be solved by some turkey with degrees in Experimental Psychology and Philosophy.

There are no silver bullets. No one who has actually done work in the year 2000 field will tell you that it is easy. When you are dealing with millions of lines of code, written by dozens of different programers, using a half a dozen different languages, or more, with no coding standards-- it gets very complicated-- very fast. Especially when dealing with computational dates and sorts and creative programers.

The year 2000 problem is very real and will be very expensive. Companies will go out of business because of this problem. Some companies will get sold with horrible year 2000 problems to unsuspecting buyers.

Good investing,

Steve
