"The new millennium is the long-anticipated event around which some sects and cults build end-of-the-world so-called prophecies. Others may use this time as an opportunity to attempt to induce panic and terror. The media has charged still others with attempting to stir panic for personal gain in order to sell books or survival supplies. Regardless of the motivation of others, these events will likely directly impact the lives and jobs of emergency workers. With effects estimates ranging from “a blip on the screen” to “catastrophic meltdown and the end of our society as we know it,” it is difficult to know how much preparation for Y2K is appropriate. What preparation is prudent, and when does preparation cross the line into paranoia?" Y2K Service Continuity Plan For Emergency Services Departments By Randy Templeton. 1999
