Major Y2K Problem-Solving Seminar Is Cancelled: 3 Attendees

Link: ieee.org

A New York City seminar on solving the y2k problem was cancelled by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. . .

Considering that this is an engineering problem, we know that engineering projects are overrun at about 50 percent of the time. In the case of the year 2000 problem, there is no leeway--it has to be fixed before midnight on December 31, 1999, or in some cases before midnight of December 31, 1998. Thus, at least half of the world will not be prepared for the new millennium. . .
