Is entirely due to the hard work of many, many underappreciated programmers.

Hmmm, well. I just looked at the author, having come across something in the article I found questionable. I'm still leaving it as the best I found so far.

I'm still looking for a documentary I *know* exists. Title was, IIRC, "The Unsung Heroes of Y2K."
