Is anyone fixing the Year 2000 problem?

By Jimmy Guterman

Friday, December 12, 1997

Last week we examined some of the
economic implications of the Year 2000
problem. From the avalanche of mail we
received on the subject, it's clear this is an
issue that concerns you greatly. Some
message writers accused us of being too
alarmist, some said we weren't alarmist
enough; others wanted to sell us their expert
services. A few offered some surprising
theories regarding the origin of the
millennium bug-betcha didn't know the
Trilateral Commission is somehow attached
to the Y2K dilemma.

This week, we examine some of the
technological work involved in solving the
Year 2000 problem. Specifically, what are
some forward-thinking companies doing to
solve it and what can we learn from them?
