Michael Stutz wrote an article entitled _The Next Millennium Headache_ which can be found at <http://www.wired.com/news/news/technology/story/14390.html> The Next Millennium Headache by Michael Stutz 12.Aug.98.PDT Sometime in the future, the day and date settings deep inside millions of computers will roll over to a value that the machines don't understand.
