:Very quiet.  Very boring (which is good, in this case).

We had a "y2k bug."  Yep, a very important one.  The date on our
main web site, generated by a perl script from Matt's Script Archive, 
rolled over to the year 19100.  :-)

Of course, the $Year variable was being set by saying "if ($Year > 95) 
{ print '19$Year' };", and for whatever reason it was rolling 99 to
100.  My quick fix was to change $Year to gnu date.  Then we promptly 
went back to watching the fireworks show over Lake Michigan and drinking 
champagne.
