I plan to save mine to pay my taxes. As my luck would have it the IRS probably gets an undeserved Y2K stay of execution.

Interesting I may have spoken too soon about Y2k. My local supermarket is closed with a sign blaming Y2k computer problems. (Then again, maybe someone wanted to take off early for the holiday.) From a computer progtramming standpoint, it is possible that a number of otherwise small problems can eventually add up to something that has very, very significant impact on larger, interconnected financial, banking, insurance, retail payemnt etc. systems. That sort of a prognonis makes much more sense than the non-sensical talk about cars exploding, planes falling out of the sky and nuclear meltdowns.
