Anyone catch Tony Keyes on Oprah Winfrey today? He did a good job especially considering that he only had 10 short minutes to tell everyone everything about Y2K. Believe it or not, he did cover practically everything...government and bank's best interest to keep the issue hidden, mainframes and chips, possible recession in 2000. He got more serious when he mentioned the painful decisions he and his family made to get ready for this, such as selling certain vacation properties that he felt there would certainly be no market for after 2000 with people out of work, etc. Nobody was laughing. Then someone in the audience lightened it up when she suggested that credit card debt might be wiped out when the computers crash. He didn't comment on that one. Not bad for 10 minutes. It's a start.
