JAE - The JoAnne Effect - Who is JoAnne?

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

I know what the JoAnne effect is, I've even seen it at work in financial programs that try to project into Y2K and fail. One thing I don't know---Who is JoAnne and how did the problem get named for her?
