Tomorrow begins a new year.
It wouldn't be that big of a deal except it also begins a new century and computer programmers during the 1970s did not plan for that. Although I doubt that a Y2K calamity awaits us tomorrow, I do believe the fact that we have been talking about a computer glitch all year signals how we have entered into the computer age. If the turn of the century happened twenty years ago, a Y2K glitch couldn't even have been seen by the most fearful person as a problem. Frankly, computers weren't deployed the way they are today. Now computers and computer chips are ubiquitous.
