I fell for the Y2K scare, Howard Ruff back in the 70-80's(?). I lean towards doomsday scenarios, so don't trust myself to look at this objectively - but I feel like we are not going to be the same country in about a year. Am I wrong?

I am wondering the same thing. I went to our local "big box" outdoor sports store this afternoon and I noticed that virtually ALL, ALL, ALL of the 9mm, 38 special, 357 magnum and 45 caliber ammo was SOLD OUT! Except for a few boxes of super premium stuff (like in 3 or 4 boxes). I'm not kidding. I've been a round for a few years now and I have NEVER seen this store out of all of the common handgun ammo. Either people are expecting trouble (which I doubt in our neck of the woods) or they are looking at ammo as a store of value. Either way, its strange!
