Saw a TV commercial this weekend by a wide-screen television manufacture. It shows a family watching the tube on 12-31-1999. The New York apple is making its way down the poll over Times Square. When it hits midnight, the power goes out, but the father has made contingency plans. He cranks up a generator and the wide-screen TV comes back on, showing the wild celebration in New York. The family then begin eating food out of cans! It was a very creative way to spread the word.

Also saw the Y2K story in another Sunday comic strip.
