Bullet Dodged?
The DST crisis, which was supposed to be a sort of reduced-size clone of the Y2K crisis, will be played by Vern Troyer.
Y2K was itself a bit of a fizzle as a threat to Western Civilization, so maybe it's appropriate that mini-Y2K appears to be a mini-fizzle. At least that's what the early returns show. Your Mileage May Vary.
As of the posting of this blog entry, it was unclear whether the Daylight Saving Time crisis would delay the planned Monday launch of Sun's new and improved Java Community Process site. That launch is probably highly susceptible to crises, having been delayed several time in the past week.
Or was I not supposed to say that?
I put it down to a twitchy finger on the press release trigger.
