Y to K - Internal Memo
Internal Memo
"Our staff has completed the 3 years of work on time and on budget. We
have gone through every line of code in every program in every system.
We have analyzed all databases, all data files, including backups and
historic archives, and modified all data to reflect the change. We are
proud to report that we have completed the "Y-to-K" date change mission,
and have now implemented all changes to all programs and all data to
reflect the following new standards:
Januark, Februark, March, April, Mak, June, Julk, August, September,
October, November, December
and. . .
Sundak, Mondak, Tuesdak, Wednesdak, Thursdak, Fridak, Saturdak.
"I trust that this is satisfactory, because to be honest, none of this Y
to K problem has made any sense to me. But I understand it is a global
problem, and our team is glad to help in any way possible. And what
does the year 2000 have to do with it? Speaking of which, what do you
think we ought to do next year when the two digit year rolls over from
99 to 00? We'll await your direction."
