In recent years I’ve seen frequent references to Y2K as if it were a fantasy created by the media, that there was never anything to worry about, that there was no problem. (Because - obviously - nothing did happen!) Any time anyone brings up a potentially serious issue, we get someone responding that we don’t need to worry about it, we don’t need to think about it, because, “Hey, remember Y2K!?” In fact, that seems to be just about the only time anyone ever refers to the Y2K issue these days.
