I'll just throw this out there...

It seems to me that those who feel Y2K is not likely to be too much of an issue seem to beleive that this is simply a technology problem and that the corrective measures needed to address it are rather 'cut and dried'. What they don't seem to address is that it is not simply a tech issue but rather a management or mismanagement issue.

The delays, the difficulty in getting started, the budget overuns, the confusion and lack of contingency planning, the difficulty in making inventory of systems, etc, etc... is indicative of the root of the problem--one of management. Which is precisely why this problem has the potential of being a catastrophe. Anyone who believes the government can tackle a massive management problem has obviously never dealt with them on a direct basis.
