Back on 2 June, I mentioned that Clinton was going to weave Y2K into his commencement address at MIT. Here's what he said on it:

"I want you to know that we are also working to address the threat to our prosperity posed by the Year 2000 bug. I tried and tried to find out what the class hacker project was for the Class of '98 and I failed. But I did learn that in the year 2000, the graduating class is proposing to roll all of our computers back by 100 years. And I am determined to thwart you. I will do my best." (The audience laughed).

Well, there you go. Hard to imagine that it took considerable pressure just to work in that golden nugget!
