After 2000, *lots* of people sneered that the Y2K bug had been a big nothing, massively overhyped.
They were idiots. If the vast amount of Y2K remediation that took place hadn't, planes might well have fallen from the sky, nuclear power plants might well have melted down. I worked on two projects myself to fix bad 2 digit dates.
We get to the other side of the current Nazi infestation, the same idiots are going to say, "See, you were just hysterical."
