y2k was a massive deal that was totally solved by great engineering. The full range of engineering approaches, the full range of talents, the full range of management interference brought to bear in every country, company, department etc. and all of it worked out equally well so there was no problem. Us engineers, we're amazing, we should take a bow. Or maybe, just maybe it was just a teensy weensy bit overblown so consulting companies could charge really big fees especially to government departments and banks. Easiest way to sell is to scare the st out of people then show them "the solution." I bought an invasion like that once, regret it now...
