 The next century doesn't start until 2001.  Which is, of course,
 why Arthur Clarke called his book/movie 2001.
 I'm sure everyone will go nuts on New Year's Eve 1999, but they'll
 be a year off for the new century.

 Y2K compliance has _nothing_ to do with the next century.
 If it's gonna work in 2000, then it should work in 2001, the start
 of the next century, but the two are unrelated.
