"Year 2000 bug has some preparing for chaos"
posted at 10:42 p.m. PDT Sunday, June 21, 1998

excerpt:
Huss is preparing for what seems like an implausible, yet eerie, scenario.

Northern Michigan is stockpiling food, water, medicine and other basic
necessities, and readying a family cabin for himself, his wife and his
year-old baby. He plans to take his money out of the banking system by
August. And he is honing his construction, gardening and landscaping
skills.
