It wasn't a disaster, because people took the problem seriously and addressed it and thereby eliminated the problem before it could cause chaos.
What about all of the Y2K doomers who said, right up to the moment, that we were headed for a complete catastrophe?
Anyway, that's beside the point. Y2K was more about picking the moment (that many KNEW wasn't going to occur). This is just generally about being prepared. I fail to see how anyone would be against it.
So, can you point to a particular post that would demonstrate these antis? I haven't paid much attention to the threads up to this point.
I responded with an example in post #65 this thread. Also other FReepers sent you examples in this same thread. It appears that not only are you too lazy to do your own research you are to lazy to read the responses to your questions.
