A slight decrease in DSMT value will be relatively insignificant when the new millenium comes: ...presuming there will be a new millenium. I hear that we should prepare ourselves for a complete collapse of the entire world as the computers that run our lives will think its 1900. This will cause the following events to occure: elevators will suddenly stop between floors never to run again, jet engines will suddenly stop in mid air as on-board computers advise that it has not been serviced for nearly a hundred years, cars will collide at all intersections as the traffic signals go bonkers, boats will sink as the navigation equiptment guide the ships to rocky shores by confusing longitude with lattitude, electricity will no longer be generated since the grid was not available in 1900, water will start to run uphill over embankments to empty our water pipes, food will no longer be available because the cows, pigs and chickens will suddenly think they are nearly 100 years older and keel over to die. The local news and sooth slayers advise that we should now stock-up on 3 months of food and supplies to bring in the new millinia....and so forth. Joe.
