TERMINOLOGY NOTE: Year 2000 aka Y2K

[Al Rubottom <alrub -at- INETWORLD -dot- NET>]

Yes, dear friends, they *do* call it the "Y2K" problem,
and since it's widespread and rapidly becoming the standard
acronym/abbreviation/whatever, we may as well adopt it

In today's Government Technology supplement,
Technology Trends, there's a "Guide to Y2K Solutions,"
including a list of Web Resrources/URLs;
a sampling follows:
