There will be plenty of opportunity to show slopy work performed by the large numbers of mediocre, careless, brainless people in the code patching business, a boring task requiring lot's of attention and careful work trying to understand [usually poor] code written by someone else. These developers will not only skip needed changes but also damage existing code. It will be a mess. TI officers in corporations are hiring outsides with the only purpose of blaming someone else for the whole mess. We will be in for a big surprise!

Pancho. Pancho. Get with the company line here:
1. There is no Y2K problem; it is a hoax
2. Thus, no code needs to be fixed
3. Thus, if there is code that needs to be fixed, it will be fixed perfectly
4. Thus, life will continue with nary a hitch
5. Thus, talk about "messes" is just scare tactics by Y2K hypists

Ok, you're forgiven. Just don't let it happen again. (gg)
