TECHNICOLOGICAL END

  "Though there is a slight possibility of total technicological breakdown at the turn of the millineum, the probability is minimal. technology is too advanced and in general we have been prepared and are preparing for this. If it would occur and all failure of all technology occurs at the stroke of midnight, 2000. I believe we will be ready. Any recourses will last no longer than a week and we will be back where we were. And that's IF it happens. I don't think it will."
Dr. Marcus Leon, Westing Institute, London
