Humor to lighten the truth:

This just in from Web service InfoBeat: After what the bunny company referred to as "rigorous testing," Playboy says its online Playmate Database is finally ready for the new millennium.

"Several members of the Playboy Cyber Club expressed concern that the Playmate data, particularly the measurements, might not be Year 2000 compliant," Rodger Brown, editor of Playboy Online, tells InfoBeat. "I immediately asked our programmers to assess the situation."

The online Playmate Database features biographical and statistical data on the 535 women who have appeared in the magazine's centerfold since Playboy's debut in December 1953.

Playboy Online's Y2K compliance test of its Playmate Database took longer than technicians had anticipated, Brown says, "because the programmers insisted on checking each of the statistics in the
Database with the original photos in the magazine."
