"t was speculated that computer programs could stop working or produce erroneous results because they stored years with only two digits and that the year 2000 would be represented by 00 and would be interpreted by software as the year 1900" - wikipedia

If the system can recognize 1900... I don't know where to start with this.
If 1900 exists in the system, that would mean that they were dumb enough to have had an 8 digit dating system software that only saved info in 6 digit format, or that depended upon inferior programming of whatever OS.

I can't even come up with a good analogy for this. all I know is some programmers should still be serving time.
