'Large vehicles may not start

'Bradley,

Here you go:

April 17 1997: Large vehicles may not start: According to a report on the
State of Texas Year 2000 website, one in four fire engines manufactured
since 1985 could fail to start in 2000: date-aware microprocessors are used
to track their maintenance schedules and turn off the ignition if these
schedules are not followed. A similar problem has been reported in the
Caterpillar 3406 truck engine. Some companies that lease large vehicles
install additional microprocessors in them to monitor whether maintenance
schedules are being followed.
