Computer Science: The great fear of the year 2000
On december 31rst 1999, all of the world's computers will go from the
year 99 to the year 00 because only the last two digits of the milenum
are displayed. To avoid a complete paralysis of all systems, all programs
have to be changed. The work of Hercules where each minute counts...
(This is a true story. In the year 00 I shall be -57 years old!)
Thanks Angel for the amuzements. I enjoyed reading them.
