I hope I haven't misunderstood your instructions. Because to be
honest, none of this Y to K problem makes any sense to me.
At any rate I have finished converting the company
calendars so that the year 2000 is ready to go with the following new
months:

NEW POLICY FROM CORPORATE HEADQUARTERS:
Our Corporate Operations Committee has defined a lower cost alternative to the previously planned NT and Win 98 system conversions which will also address the Y2K (Year 2000) issues we are facing.
ALL COMPUTERS WILL BE REMOVED FROM THE DESKTOP BY JANUARY 1, 1999.
Instead, everyone will be provided with an Etch-A-Sketch. There are many sound and viable reasons for this decision:
1. No Y2K problems.
2. No technical glitches keeping work from being done.
3. No more wasted time reading and writing emails.
4. Reduction in technical support calls will reduce our costs
associated with maintaining our I.S. help desk.
5. Reduction in hardware costs.
6. Elimination of all software license fees.
7. Reduction in the amount of training necessary for new hires.
8. Can be used at the desktop as well as away from the office due its
extreme portability.
9. Extremely low cost makes them disposable (when one breaks, we
will simply replace it).
10. Reduction in cost of electricity and phone lines.
11. No company time wasted while employees play Super Mario, etc.
12. We can now hire 1st graders to do your job.
In anticipation of the questions some of you will undoubtedly have regarding this corporate decision, we have prepared a list of the most Frequently Asked Questions from the Etch-A-Sketch Help Desk:
