A brief program note as we approach the end of this collection. Next up will be "Drawn And Quartered," which was, as far as I can tell, the first collection published of Charles Addam's New Yorker material, in 1942. There are a few war-themed panels; I had no idea. Addams and Evil - 1947   Prescient. Or he had R.U.R stuck in his head.

As a Brit I'm more annoyed by Lottie's use of the term "Sixth Form College". It's Sixth Form or College no teenager would use the entire title for it in conversation

Classic Kevin and Kell (February 8-12, 1999)     The Year 2000 Problem, or Y2K Problem, or just Y2K, was a computer glitch that caused no end of problems in systems all over the world, eventually bringing about the end of civilisation as we know it. Not. The short version is that, to save memory, early computer systems formatted dates using only two digits for the year: 95 for 1995, 96 for 1996, and so on. There was the possibility that, once 2000 rolled around, 00 would be interpreted as being 1900, be recognised as an invalid date, and cause catastrophic cascading system failures in electronics. Of course, nothing much happened: computer scientists foresaw the problem, and worked to correct the glitch. In the end, the only problems that happened were minor and almost without consequence. Y2K will be a big plot point in K&K.

In the end, the only problems that happened were minor and almost without consequence. That's kinda underselling it. A bunch of folks busted their asses not only fixing the problem, but *finding* it in the first place. You got stuff like some bank with a 20 year-old server plodding away in a closet that everyone's forgotten is even used for anything because it's just done its job crunching numbers and "if it aint broke", or an Excel spreadsheet that used the year as part of a black magic workaround and then wound up twelve layers deep in some network of re-used sloppy code. The big "planes falling out of the sky" doom stuff was never going to happen but a whole bunch of small scale (compared to planes falling out of the sky) bugs were quite likely and every system had to be evaluated independently because you never know what that poor code's been made to do and a blind fix could break three other things. And then the whole thing becomes a joke of overreaction with executives complaining "why did we pay so much for this if nothing happened?" I wasn't involved in that but I know some folks who were and one of them describes it as the biggest and most thankless job he's had to date.

You got to love the juxtaposition of Rudy condemning the cultists of The Wild for taking advantage of people panicking from the Y2K Bug, with Kell getting praised for doing the same thing.

I just happened to get in an argument about it last night so that was mainly me decompressing. If I hadn't already been primed to read it as dismissive I don't think I would have.
