I believe that there may be a few hiccups, but none that will directly affect my ability to "survive." The real problems (if they occur) should begin around June/July 1999 (beginnings of new fiscal years) and on February 29 of 2000 (many programs do not recognize that the year 2000 *is* a leap year). Yawn, just another day...

When Y2K hits and we're all riding bikes to tune 2 pianos a month to feed our families, I'll still have a few customers because I'm not as expensive as those rich tuners in Missouri! If we live thru 1/1/00, I'll go to $150 tunings! >> How many others out there are convinced the world will come toand end, as we know it, come 1/1/00? I believe it will be just like any other day when we wake up. Wim PS, Lance, Don't let the fact that this guy is a lawyer scare you into bugging him for the money. Of all people he should know that he can't overlook his bills. And if he does give you a hard time, the Louisiana BAR would be happy to hear from you.
