Reading the latest business week there are two movies coming out this year (so far) on Y2K. Sounds like Hollywood is getting into the act.

In my opinion, The media is going to have a one hell of hay day with Y2K this year. Yes there are going to be problems, but focusing on negative stories is going to lead to panic, hoarding, etc. And guess who is going to share in this blame? The guys that believe bad news sells - the media. Ever notice, you watch the news, 95% of the new cast is negative, and to cheer you up, they throw in a "feel good" story at the end. If you live in a negative world, surrounded with negative news, day & night, you will become what you consume.
