This is insulting rubbish.
I worked on Y2K for over a year, in a team of at least 40 people, to ensure that particular complex and highly integrated IT systems of the Australian Govt continued to operate smoothly through both 31 Dec and on through 29th Feb, as 2000 was a leap year which in this case was an added complication.
We knew and proved that extensive changes and tests had to be made to prevent incredibly serious disruption and repercussions to a vital system.
To dismiss Y2K as "a big fuss about nothing" is sheer ignorance.
