February 19, 1999: Y2K Preparedness - Gary North

Gary North lays out a detailed case for preparing households and communities for possible Y2K failures in banking, utilities, supply chains, and government systems.

Art Bell asks which risks are technically plausible, how much preparation is reasonable, and whether alarm could become as disruptive as the computer bug itself. North discusses food, cash, power, local organization, and the uncertainty surrounding older embedded systems.
