Of course, technically, the new millennium didn’t start until January 1st, 2001 (unless you include the non-existant “Year Zero”).

Wait, does that mean it went 2BC, 1BC, 1AD, 2AD, etc.??? surely there was a year 0 in between?
All my conceptions of time are falling about around me!

But that’s what Doc Brown set the Delorean to to see the birth of Christ. Back to the Future is right about everything (even Jiggawats).

Mark- The Coke billboard is over the photographer’s right shoulder, I think. Don’t forget to kneel before Zod!

No, no… the Y2K thing was predicated on computer clocks. So either stuff goes wrong at 7 AM 12/31/99 (New Zealand = Midnight), or everyone buys the farm at 7 PM (GMT = Midnight). Of course, I’m certain that most IT personnel ran simulations well before then, but I was not going to panic until necessary.
Now, I’d love to see a movie where everyone panics about 01/01/00, breathes a collective sigh of release when nothing happens, then have all hell break loose on 12/31/00 when the ACTUAL Millennium occurs.
Hmmm… what if someone launched a virus on 010100 which did not activate until 111111?
What I love about Times Square is that one can date photos from all the advertisements in the background!
