Re: Y2k Bug

John,

It is safe to assume that the system used to create the letter/info is
having a Y2K problem....That was a fallback plan for many folks.  In the
event of Y2K problems the plan was to change the date to 1972 so the
calendar days matched those in 2000 until the problem was resolved.
