Day 5: Write a story set in the 1990s

“But what WILL happen when the clocks strike midnight?”
“No-one, knows. All we can do is plan for the worst case scenario,
for the whole of the computer system to come to a halt,
and have strategies in place to cope if that comes to pass.”
“They didn’t have this problem at the end of the previous millennium!"

We sat, with baited breath, waiting as the last seconds of 1999 ticked away…

But I cannot tell you what happened next, for that is part of the story of the third millennium.
By the time that ends, it will all be lost in the mists of time.
