The weakest link in the chain when it breaks will cause the chain to quit functioning as a chain.

From: mille.org :

"If these intertwining computer systems work in the future it is because they have all been changed, they have all been tested, and they all work correctly. The weakest link in the chain when it breaks will cause the chain to quit functioning as a chain.

Books could be and possibly will be written on these last two sentences alone. It is, I believe, the single most serious challenge we face in moving past Midnight, December 31, 1999.

One way to test our belief system is to deny us access to our treasures. To permit an environment of confusion among the computer professionals, to permit the record systems of the world to die in their tracks. To bring us to the point of understanding that all that we have lived for on this earth, all that we have invented, improved, struggled for and built is worthless. The pensions, the profit-sharing, the savings accounts, the equity in our homes. It is all gone. Or worse yet, not "accessible"."
