Here's a rather nice analogy, comparing the approach of Y2k with the sinking of Titanic.

I liked this quote best:

The Titanic sank with only 12 square feet of its total area damaged by the iceberg (a few inches wide but for some 200 feet long). So little was ruptured, significantly less than 1% -- but in all the "right" places

Will all the "right" parts of the system be ready?
