BUT IS IT OVER? - from PG&E WEEK 1-10-2000

"We successfully navigated the New Year rollover without incident, primarily due to the extraordinary commitment of all of our employees," says George Orlov, CIO and vice president of Computer and Telecommunication Services. "We said that we expected January 1, 2000, to be like any other day, and we are proud that we were able to deliver on that assurance."

2:20 a.m. There were only about 300 customers out around the system. That's about the same as any other day.

BUT IS IT OVER? NOT QUITE, according to Orlov. "While the New Year rollover was potentially the most critical period for Y2k, IT IS POSSIBLE THAT COMPUTER-RELATED PROBLEMS MAY NOT APPEAR FOR WEEKS OR EVEN MONTHS FROM NOW," he says. "The smooth transition to the New Year is very encouraging, but we will continue to diligently monitor our systems."

Thanks, Bardou.

It is possible that computer-related problems may ot appear for weeks or even months from now..."

Any problems will be computer-related, but they by God will not be y2k-related.

Billing glitches, perhaps?

Love the continuing hot showers, though.
