I have spoken to several key computer science instructors persons who either own their own computer business or are computer programmers. All of them say that their will be glitches. When asked the if question like what happens if the electric utility goes down, all have stated that they already know how to work around those problems. For instance, when they don't receive a shipment of coal on time, they have to do something to continue to produce electricity or when a station is hit by lightning etc etc. They have also stated that the US is the most ingenious and skilled nation to ensure that the problems, by Jan 1, 2000, are minimal. Tell me, when was the last time that the US had a crisis that went unsolved?
