the banker's prayer

greenspun.com : LUSENET : TimeBomb 2000 (Y2000) : One Thread

My bank's Y2K-ready; I shall not freak. It insureth my deposit with the FDIC. It offereth me overdraft protection. It issueth colorful brochures. It telleth me not to hide in the closet with an AK-47, for heaven's sake. Yea, though I hear all the hype and hysteria on my way to the ATM, I will fear no loss of service, for the bank's spin is with me. Its ads and its press releases, they comfort me. I preparest a pantry of dried fruits and vegetables; I stockpileth water in old gallon jugs; my supplies runneth over. But surely nothing will happen except brief power outages, and I will dwell in the house with a flashlight, but that's all.
