   While I agree the Y2K issue was overhyped, part of the reason it turned out   
   to be largely hype was because a whole lot of folks spent a lot of time   
   figuring out and updating their systems to prevent it from being worse.   
      
   I should probably try to move this side discussion to a more appropriate   
   echo, but I am not sure what that would be.  The Y2K echo is long gone. ;)
