01 Jan 00 - 02:37 AM (#156471) Subject: RE: East Coast Mudcats - Sign In Please From: Songster Bob Just got back from a friend's house, where my kid and his kid and neighbor kids and the host all chanced arrest by setting off fireworks. Sang a few songs, some lead by Ferarra, Bill D., or Lamarca. All healthy, none wealthy, but I have to work tomorrow (is that wise?). Computer made it through with no problems that I can see. So seem to have all the computers we were worried about. I'm on the Y2K team at work (which is why I work tomorrow, noon to whenever). Looks like all our work paid off. Bob C. |

01 Jan 00 - 02:48 AM (#156476) Subject: RE: East Coast Mudcats - Sign In Please From: sophocleese Just came back from a fun party. At Midnight my husband and a friend piped in the New Year. Then we took one set of pipes outside with three bodhrans and...... didn't set fire to them; we played them and paraded around the block waving to the host's neighbours. Three other houses had parties going and they all came out to wave and cheer. We couldn't get a babysitter but I hope our kids will remember this night. They loved it. |

We had a relatively warm and comfortable First Night celebration (first year in a while when it hasn't been near or below zero) Michael played a nifty program of music from the millennium, we watched some good fireworks, jumped up and down with the population of Montpelier at midnight, came home and went to bed, and woke up to it all still here, working and happy.

01 Jan 00 - 09:01 PM (#156796) Subject: RE: East Coast Mudcats - Sign In Please From: Midchuck 3 sets at Rutland First Night, ending at 11:15; then tore down and packed the stuff (while sending the least ugly and most persuasive member - my bride of 33 winters - to pick up the check). Then drove up the mountain to a party and played/sang for another hour or more - I'm not sure why. Slept in as late as I've slept in some years, then fired up the infernal machine, which worked just fine, and swore at the people who perpetrated the fraud of a Y2K crisis in order to sell more junk, including software to cure Y2K bugs that didn't happen. (To quote Stan, thus giving this post a folk music content) God Damn Them All. One set at a Senior residence in Rutland at 2:30 this afternoon, and back up to the same place on the mountain for the second installment of the jam, and home an hour or so ago. Now I will get some sleep. Not that anyone else is likely to care about all this, but it appears to be expected.... |

There wasn't. All the computers worked. All the info was still there. Not a single customer called worrying that their money was gone. So after wasting the morning, I spent the rest of the day celebrating with my Sweetie the beginning of a New Year and a new time for us. Much happiness to all Mudcatters everywhere! TheMuse |

02 Jan 00 - 07:22 AM (#156928) Subject: RE: East Coast Mudcats - Sign In Please From: dwditty Greetings from New Haven. As far as I can tell, I had the only Y2K bug known to man. Fired up the computer and checked the date - January 4, 1989. Changed it to January 1. 2000 and everything seems OK. The poor media had to report that nothing happened - it looked so silly. Live from the ATM - it worked. Live from the airport - planes are on time. Live from the train station - No delays. Etc. Went to a great house party New Years Eve - food, drink, kids, and lots of music accompanied by 5 guitars and a great saw player. Blessed New Year to all. DW |
