Occam's razor. The simplest explanation is probably closest to the truth. As I explained previously, high turnover rates amongst technical personnel is not uncommon, both in government and private sector. We know that demand is increasing across the board for programmers. It is also true that a programmer working for a state agency can probably make a lot more money elsewhere. If you have a bookstore near you that carries the Sunday papers for other cities, then take a look at the employment classifieds. If there truly is a Y2K "panic" and companies are "scrambling", then you should see tons of ads for COBOL programmers or ads mentioning Y2K. I already pointed out that a search on the web doesn't seem to yield that much interest in Y2K-related skills. As far as the TPII thing is concerned, I wrote a letter of complaint to the SEC.
