1998 Report of the Auditor General of Canada
Preparedness for Year 2000: Government-Wide Mission-Critical Systems

Introduction

The Year 2000 problem, also known as the millennium bug, Y2K and
century date change, refers to the potential for computer systems
error, malfunction or failure caused by the past practice of
representing the year with a two-digit code. Due to the extensive
use of the date code, the information technology industry has
estimated that some 90 percent of systems and codes will be affected
by Year 2000.

Given the ever-increasing reliance on information technology, Year
2000 represents a business risk, not just a technical problem. It is
a threat to all organizations, including businesses, non-profit
organizations, schools, hospitals and all levels of government.

The Ontario Year 2000 Community and Communications System

Millennium Salons co-founder, Bill Dale and I have been working on a
Project to provide an easy to install, quickly up and running, Y2K
community preparation and communications system.

The system has been designed in such a way that even an internet
novice, following our simple step by step instructions, should be
able to have the Y2K community site fully functional quickly - in a
matter of hours or a very few days - pooling resources within their
area to help everyone prepare for Y2K service disruptions.

The stunning simplicity and the potential for community
participation, coupled with the inter-connectivity of ALL communities
involved, makes for a powerful useful tool needing very little
maintenance. Information can be easily uploaded to the site by anyone
using it, and is instantly available and communicated to all
concerned.

Household Cyclopedia, On-line...

The Household Cyclopedia is a pioneer book of the old west that one
would have packed carefully into his covered wagon before heading
off for a boondock town. It was a book for people who need to be
able, if the circumstances demand, to amputate a limb, grow their own
fibre for material, take care of their horses, give birth to
children, and build houses, concoct medicines, all with the minimum
of help from others.
