London times excerpt from Dec 21
Americans are already feeling the effects of the millennium bug. In Kansas, a 104-year-old woman recently received a letter telling her to register for kindergarten. In Washington, a Pentagon supplier with a contract for delivery of goods in 2003 received a warning that it was 94 years behind schedule.

Many critics claim the process of re-writing software is moving far too slowly. One survey conducted by Cap Gemini found that only 33% of America's biggest companies had detailed rescue plans in place.
