Re: Did you know there is a pandemic going on?

True. As I mentioned, I was involved in Y2K at my previous job and my current job after I arrived (July 1998). Part of the process for date handling was allowing for February 29th in years divisible by 4. As you said, this would not be the case in the year 2100, but of course, no one currently working in my job will be alive then, so, not our problem. Obviously, there will be new software in place by then that should account for this, in fact, the process has already started to transition from mainframe (using COBOL!!) to more web-based software using SQL among other things. Fortunately, I should be retired by the time the mainframe is completely gone.
