Re: wired on y2k

Scott has decided that the only real fix for the Y2K problem may be to pack up and move to this patch of land 75 miles from his San Diego home. "In the next year or so," he predicts, "the most common cocktail party chatter will be, 'What are you doing to prepare for Y2K?' But by then, it will be too late."

Water? Met a reactor designer from Los Alamos once who lived in some super but isolated place in the Sangre De Christos. He had to drill some 3K ft for water. VERY EXPENSIVE. Ever seen the Peoples Broadcasting Service piece about the "Cadillac Desert"? Water is just another utility here. All automated.
