In 1999 at the threshold of the New Millennium the corporate world was held spell bound by a campaign blitz about the inevitable crash of computer systems and the collateral danger to human existence. The buzz word the world over then was Y2K compliance. There were so many cataclysmic predictions against noncompliance. It was as if the world would come to an abrupt end by midnight of 31st December, 1999. Everybody fell for it especially as the campaigns came from respected voices, global institutions and multinational giants. Little did the unsuspecting hostage audience know that behind all the fuss was the vested interest of computer firms interested in marketing their wares to the pliant corporate world. Then came 1st January, 2000, the world did not cease to exist; the moon did not drop from space neither did the other planets but the world seamlessly progressed into a new year, a new decade, a new century and a new millennium.
